As for changing defaults, I don’t really have a strong opinion. When

The issue is that, it's difficult to use. Many (most) laptops does have
only 2 buttons for left and right mouse button. It seems natural to use
something simpler as 2 finger tap to simulate that missing button.

If you need a workaround until the fix (?), this one has been pointed
out on the forums:

However, those commands have to be run at each session's start (you can
add them in Preferences → Startup Applications).
