Dunno. But my niece and nephew are tablet/phone experts, and have never used a mouse. And they are 4 and 6.

If it comforts you, I used an upside-down SNES gamepad for a few years before ever touching a mouse. And today I use my mouse far more than any game controllers.

I'm more curious why it was upside down.

I just grabbed one and starting using it upside-down. By the time anyone told me it was wrong, it already felt more natural to use it that way.

I think that just means new computing devices have expanded the market, not replaced old devices. Some functionality that was once used exclusively on PCs (what else did you have?) may now be more commonly accessed via mobile devices. You didn't have a PC in your pocket when you needed to look up directions on a map..
