Hrm, I went looking to see if I could help resolve, but I have to admit, at first glance I don't get it. The commit diff:

Tested with both Ubuntu's included libinput 1.10 and an updated libinput 1.12. Hardware (from lspci) includes a synaptic touchpad. Having the xorg synaptic driver installed makes no difference.
