I dislike the idea of tax dollars going to Microsoft.
Sounds like rose colored glasses. Resistive touch screens were atrocious. Needed substantial pressure to register touch. Couldn’t be made with a glass layer, since you had to deform them, so they scratched over time. Never precise if you used your nail, so you had to use the stupid stylus. Just awful.
I've composed quite a few chiptunes in nitrotracker (DS Homebrew application), and as long as you have the stupid stylus, it's awesome. In my opinion, significantly better and infinitely more precise for productivity applications than a capacitive display. Also, I've owned multiple NDS consoles, and never scratched or deformed the touch screen on a single one of them. I'm working on a DS homebrew game right now actually!
Are you just... never using them? I've owned 3DS and DS's and the screens just absolutely get scratched to all hell through use. Every one of them. It's not like it makes the screen unusable, but it's certainly visible. And it's inevitable; you're using a plastic stylus to press on ... plastic.
I used that for about twenty years before switching to Jetbrains Mono, perhaps worth checking out if you're looking for something more modern (ttf, ligatures, a bit more modern design thought about disambiguation, etc).
Remember: The powers that be forbid progress, as progress might disrupt the powers that be.
