I can see it being more responsive yes, and all the other benefits he mentions as well.
It's just such a different way of controlling the aim of your character that my brain refuses to believe it's any good. I've seen some gamers going with one of those actually large trackballs (whereas the one I was thinking about was like a huge ergonomic mouse which had a trackball on top of it. Not tiny, but not massive and you only used your thumb to move it.
If you use one of those massive ones you can use your entire hand on, then where'd you click? Like if you don't click, just aim, then the other hand has to do moving and shooting, and in games like deadlock you're already kinda full with things you have to manage on kb.
But yeah I def see your point, thinking of like early 2000's optical mice. I just a few months ago bought the first wireless mouse for like 20 years. I didn't trust their speed in gaming (even though I managed to game with the wireless one 20 years ago as well.)
It's just it'd take so much getting used to. Like in League I'm jealous of the people who started playing using custom key binds and moving the camera from the keyboard. I think it just is objectively better (because you don't need to take your cursor away from the enemy to move your screem, etc), but I'm just getting to such an age that I can't be bothered to learn a completely new control scheme to replace one I be used for more than 10 years.
