Mouse events do not include things like touch and pen interactions and duplicating all your mouse events into touch events is not ideal either. This is where pointer events come in. Pointer events work for all types of input (mouse, touch, pen, etc.) and best of all they include a few additional features and methods that make doing complex interactions incredibly easy.
