I suppose it depends on where your wire is leading. Anything that’s set up where the weight of your wire is pulling down on the mouse (like if a tower is lower than your desk), nothing short of “gaming mice” are you going to get good cabling that is flexible enough to keep up. I understand you need slack in order to get the best out of cabling, but there are plenty of circumstances where you have to put effort in to set it up for any kind of meaningful performance. If you have your tower on your desk or extremely close to your peripherals, now you have to either cable manage, or not give a stuff and leave it messy, which will present its own issues since it’s connected to the mouse. I’m trading the convenience of zero wires connected to the mouse for just a literal iota of effort to remember to charge or replace my batteries at a frequency that’s absolutely negligible to positive workflow. They all have simple systems that tell me their battery, so I have no excuse to not check. And that’s only a part of the bigger reason why wireless is better in my eyes, which is having that total and unimpeded control over your mouse.
