Well, Apple actually has good trackpad so I don't really feel handicapped with that. In some cases it's even better than mouse. Although if I had to do lot of CAD work I'd rather use mouse.
On PC however mouse is definitely better option. The PC trackpads I have used are either horrible or ok'ish. One PC trackpad I've used was a cheap mimic of Apple trackpad which made it much worse than an honest PC trackpad. If you try to copy Apple on budget it doesn't work. It just makes it a wish.com version of the better thing.
100% agree. I wouldn’t be caught dead using a mouse on my MacBook because macOS isn’t built for a mouse. But at the same time I won’t use windows trackpads and will bring a wireless mouse to avoid it.
CAD work is an outlier that would be always mouse, but that doesn’t mean everyone needs one
