I won't rest until the average microcontroller in an optical mouse is more powerful than a Cray 1.

There are millions, if not tens of millions of USB and PS/2 keyboards and mice out there powered by Cypress MCUs with 8051 cores.
Nordic dominates the market for keyboards and mice. Programmable MCUs with BLE radios are required for any wireless devices.
A lot of touchscreens meet that requirement. Turns out it's often cheaper to solve problems with algorithms than avoid them by design.
