Touch and Pointer are different in emphasis not user intent. User Intent can span across device classes for different contexts -- i.e. jotting notes in a long form document in a meeting vs. at your laptop in private, all revolve around making progress on a text based deliverable.
Before recent MacCatalyst developments, the UI libraries were on different continents with CC and UIKit. Now, the major differences are design limited, not API limited.
UIMenuBuilder and UIHoverGestureRecognizer tells you most everything you need to know about how Apple is viewing the touch vs. pointer environment.
