It is. As Apple fanboi I, myself drew a line and said I don't want the cruft. No Touchbar laptop for me.
The touch bar is absolutely terrible.
It's bad. I'm constantly resting my hands in the wrong position and inadvertently pressing "keys." Esc is hard to find and the lack of feedback on it is disconcerting (as a power user I use ESC all the time to get out of dialogs).
I turned off the context switching because I was tired of the display going nuts as I moved around in an application and switched applications, I'm glad I don't suffer from seizures because I probably would have had a fit.

Have feedback?
Can I go on a tangent, and highlight touchbar as a failure? (total case of "imo")
