> Imagine having to raise your arm to swipe, pinch and tap across an ultra-wide screen several times per minute. Touch works best on small surfaces, even if it looks impressive on a bigger screen.

I regularly find myself wishing pinch zoom were available on my large multi-monitor setup, even if i only used it occasionally, i.e. to augment interactions, not as a replacement for other input methods. As a (poor) substitute, I keep an Apple trackpad handy and switch from a mouse to trackpad to do zooming. Sadly I’ve found not all macOS apps respond to Magic Mouse zooming maneuvers.
