It may very well be awesome, just pointing to concerns, I don't look at the keyboard all that much.
Keyboard shortcuts are precise and are unchanging.
Trackpad is precise because your fat finger isn't covering the result, same issue on tablets/pads if they don't offset selection from your finger, hard to get exact placement.
The touchbar demos they conveniently remove the persons fat finger. Larger sliders are fine like the Premiere timeline movement but trackpad and arrow keys work for that as well quite nicely.
From a button perspective it could be nice, I like customizing my keyboard.
I just wonder about the other things, I don't see myself changing browser tabs or sliders much on it.
I agree though that Apple doesn't usually throw in a gimmick that isn't well thought out but on the fence until I try it.
