That worked with a stylus rather than fingertip input.
The stylus has a finer point-resolution than a finger, making for more effective touch actions.
I do miss my old PalmOS devices....

Plenty of tablets and touchscreens support stylus input though, including Apple Pencil.
That wasn't my point.
Graffiti is not possible without a stylus, or at the very least is vastly less effective.
Android and iOS are both "finger first" interfaces. You can use a stylus, but you don't have to. And everything is designed around finger-fatness. Icons, gestures, on-screen keyboard.
I much prefer the stylus. You only need to see artist that paint and do sculpting with Wacom displays to see that this has a much better potential than finger-based touch. The latter is ok for light consumption, but for not so much for productivity.
