Nope, I am screwed. Have been since 2009. People would consider it a big deal, me? It is life. Things go wrong sometimes.
Back on topic though; I remember in the old Dos days people use to have little cards above their function keys. I see the touch bar as an evolution of that setup. Now the cards are dynamic, you don't have to make a new set for each program, and you don't have to bother with pressing keys either. Just hit the card.
