Like I mentioned, I can see the need to fetch state of switches and ranges of absolute axis, and even non-multitouch ABS values (due to the fact that some input devices, like sliders, may stay in a certain position for long periods of time), but I expect multitouch data to be "refreshed" very quickly.
