When I first plug a USB mouse into most winders XPee laptops,
which start out with a touchpad, both become active by default in
my experience.... so even without changing the control panel,
you have a mouse button only inches away from your keyboard....
essential right there, so you can hold down a mouse button with
one hand on the keyboard, and let the cat swat at your mouse
to get some interesting drawings :)

Has anyone tried an optical mouse under varying optical properties
and conditions, for creative purposes?

In windows, turning on "mousekeys" might do what you want.

control->accessbility options->mouse->mousekeys.

That should allow you to use the numpad to control the mouse. I can't
remember which key it is exactly to click. It might be enter or ".". I'm
hoping this doesn't disable your real mouse.
