actually if you have any rsi/tendinitis issues, like I have, then pressing the haptic buttons even on lightest setting puts more strain on thumb & wrist tendon than touching centre zone of screen or gently swiping to page turn.

a person with normal hand capability is probably blissfully unaware, but a button press ( which has to be held for 1/2 second or so ) takes more force than a screen tap, and the button access needs some thumb movement if you are holding the tablet in a normal one handed grip.

I didn't find any comfortable grip which naturally rests tip of thumb on button. Could be that it just a case of practice until you find that knack, but I gave up :-(
