What happens to the rest of the UI? Can you touch it?
-
you can but you don't necessarily. Touch is a mental "mode".

Doesn't seem Apple-like for a major feature to be essentially useless everywhere except for video and browser back button...

given this, the touchbar seems like a reasonable compromise. No direct manipulation, but it can be useful in most places.

this is the party line but really doesn't reflect reality. There's a reason I'm saying this.

touch works really, really well when consuming media. "apple-like" is not really a thing.
