I, for one, can't wait until my joycon is so scuffed from vigorously rubbing it on a flat surface that it doesn't properly insert into the console. Maybe I'm assuming too much, but why would I give Nintendo the benefit of the doubt here?
I think it has normal mouse sliders. There's a thicker black line in figure 25 behind the line with number 33.
Good eye. Looking into it further, it looks like this picture seems to suggest that they've forseen this issue and will also provide an attachment for a better "mouse mode" experience.
