Didn't even have that in mind, but you're pretty much right.
I came across this thought as watching typing or doing anything on his smartphone. Thought like "damn, you better have no clumsy hands like the clumsy smurf for this". You know, I don't know if you ever heard descriptions from that field of disease, but people sick with MS, I think, have quite some bit of troubles with clumsy fine motorics because of the ongoing nerve damage. The longer you're sick with it, the sooner you've got to do with this shit. It's like something that happens within the frame of this disease... And then imagine, if you're involuntarily clumsy with your hands and fingers from such a thing - if you need to deal with this kind of crap. BANG. You curse until the very day about struggling getting anything done... You're not intellectualy dumb or so, but your nerves already have such a high error rate that they don't do what they're supposed to do by your will.
In another aspect, diseasewise, I find it very impractical too: Parkinson's disease is a disease that lets the ability of your nerves shrink slowly to perform the part that is "calming them down". Actually, nerves and their cell chains down the body work all the time, receive signals from the brain all the time. What prevents you from twitching because of that is a mechanism of your nerve system. This kind of mechanism continually goes broken when you're hit with Parkinson's disease. People with nerve damage from long-ongoing alcohol abuse can have such signs through restless hands too. I think I once saw a woman which must have been sick with P.'s disease - her arm was like twitching around all the time, it never stopped. Try to imagine what navigating is like with this normally, and then performing fine motorics work...
This ain't technologically advanced, this is hell on earth.
I even wonder, because kids these days first get to play with a smartphone before they touch a crayon, their fine motorics are gonna be none of the best too in the coming future, so what do they think this is practical for? Not even talking about: Spreading this concept?
