From what I can find, this drops support for: iPhone 6 and lower (5S, etc...) (those are stuck forever in iOS 12).
The oldest model that we'd support would be: iPhone 6S (iOS 15.7), released in September, 2018 2015.
Should we deploy an app with this change applied so we can take a look at it with a bunch of devices?

createDomTouchEvent and createDomMouseEvent are now probably unused in dom.dart?

createDomTouchEvent yes, but createDomMouseEvent is used in other places.

I don't think we need this PointerSupportDetector anymore?

This was (and still is) useful for testing
Bummer 😞 maybe we should wait a little longer? |
I'm gathering some data about usage, maybe we can extract some guideline to know when something can be deprecated :P |

This pull request executed golden file tests, but it has not been updated in a while (20+ days). Test results from Gold expire after as many days, so this pull request will need to be updated with a fresh commit in order to get results from Gold. |

This PR cleans up a big source of complexity in our pointer handling code. It also drops support for Safari versions prior to 13 (caniuse).
Right now, we throw a hard error when running in a browser that doesn't support
PointerEvents. Should we turn it into a soft warning, and just disable gesture/pointer handling on those browsers?For users who need to support older versions of Safari, they can try this polyfill: https://github.com/wessberg/pointer-events (thanks @ditman!)
Fixes flutter/flutter#116141
