I wanted to use Pencil only mode as a means to fight unexpected screen touches, however if I enable Pencil only mode and disable every single gesture, when I happen to touch the screen by accident it blocks the stroke.

It's really easy to reproduce:

1. Disable every gesture, remove all finger related functions, set Eyedropper to 0, enable Pencil only mode.
2. Place one finger on the screen and try making a line with Apple Pencil.
3. It doesn't work.

To be fair, I've checked around and most of the apps have this behavior too, even CSP. The only apps I wasn't able to reproduce this behavior were Medibang Paint and, suddenly, Procreate.

I could use the glove, however I'd prefer to be able to prevent unnecessary touches when needed.

Do you think it would be possible to look into fixing this behavior? Or is this something deeply rooted in the system? I personally would prefer for Pencil only mode to work as advertised, however I understand if it's more difficult to fix than it looks like situation.
