I believe we're talking laptops here, so the number of buttons is
relevant, unless you always use your laptop with a mouse on the side.
I don't, and I don't know anybody who does.

All Thinkpad keyboards have both trackpoints and touchpads (except that
one on the X series).
I do agree that the two-finger motion on the Thinkpad touchpad doesn't
work as nicely as on the Macbook Pro because the touchpad is a good
bit smaller.

That's the thing of which I'm not sure. Maybe it is. But I fear that
it's simply much more clever, and instead of fighting the community it
pretends to play along with it. But if you look at the way it tries to
lock its users, it smells like bad old proprietary all the way.
