Me too, tho it does sound like even he realises he's hopeless.
Or resolve the problem himself.
Or just try a different cordless mouse if that isnt practical.
Me neither. Or a corded keyboard either.

Finding source <> control over whether that source continues
to function. Usually a cordless mouse would be lower
priority that whatever else produces interference.
Corded mice aren't that much of an inconvenience though,
they do work better at actual mousing rather than
convenience of mobility. Some people may not need that
degree of precision or lowest latency though, if you aren't
picky about mice then cordless is great.

'priority' is completely irrelevant to whether the RF protocol
is robust enough to be able to handle interference.
No they dont than a well designed cordless mouse.
Almost no one does.
And well designed cordless mice are just as good
and have the tremendous advantage of no cord.
Not that you have ever noticed.

There used to be a defect with Logitech's Mouseware. You could enable
features in the standard mouse applet, install their Mouseware which
overlays the mouse applet, use different settings in their overly
applet, but settings from the original settings were still obeyed. I
ran into that with the Smart Move (Snap-to-Default) option but it was
awhile ago. The Snap-To-Default option was set for the standard mouse
applet. When I installed Mouseware, the Smart Move was not select but
the mouse was still jumping to the default control in the window, if one
had been so designated. A similar problem was with acceleration which
was high in the standard applet but mid-range in Mouseware but the mouse
pointer was much faster than it should've been. I had to uninstall
Mouseware, reset the standard mouse applet to all the default settings
(mid-range for movement speed, snap-to-default off, cursor trails off,
etc.) and then install Mouseware so the settings that showed in
Mouseware where the ones effected alone on the mouse's behavior.

It's not hard to notice the difference, I have tons of mice
and all but one strggler are Logitechs. My humble older
MX300 performs better than my Logitech cordless laser mice
or MX700 (which should've been roughly equivalent) for
example, and the lighter weight is nice too. At least now
many of the Logitech cordless can use 1 battery even though
the battery compartment would imply use of two. It is a bit
oddly designed though, both batteries are put into parallel
which could present a problem if the installer happened to
accidentally mix up batteries, putting one old/worn-down
cell back in alongside one new cell. Since it can run off
of one cell and is lighter, doing so avoids the potential
problem (albeit remote) entirely.
More people care about mousing precision than you think.
Some will have a reasonable corded mouse and don't just want
an upgrade or replacement to lose the wire, but of course
they may not compare the right mice and don't see the
difference. For every decent Logitech there are quite a few
more merely-median performing brands/models of either
(corded or cordless).

Easy to claim. How odd that my MX700 doesnt.
Completely off with the ****ing fairys, as always.

A decent designed cordless mouse is plenty precise enough for most.
You in spades.
Irrelevant to whether you can get a decently performing cordless mouse if you want one.

Doesn't what? Perform worse than same optical engined,
non-cordless? It does, and it was noted at the time
particularly by gamers, sometimes those heavily into image
editing or other tasks requiring a higher level of precision
or less lag.
Not at all, dealing with a cord is only one issue, among
others like shape, size, weight, lag, precision, driver
quality & features.
If we want to make random assumptions about what "most"
need, any random 400 DPI corded mouse for $5 would suffice
too. IMO, "most" who seek to upgrade have a little bit more
in mind, which might be elimination of a cord, or might be
something else too or instead.
If a user switched from a mediocre old 400DPI mouse to a
newer cordless, I'm sure they'd not notice as much, as the
introduced lag is offset by the higher precision. That's a
contrast to someone who has a similarly good, modern corded
mouse. Even then, some may not appreciate the difference,
but we're on the topic so it is better to point out a
difference then let the user/buyer decide instead of making
assumptions for them.
Depends on definition of decently, and what the tasks
demand.

Doesnt do what you just claimed your MX700 does, perform worse than the MX300.
Must be one of those rocket scientist pathetic excuses for a bullshit artist.
Easy to claim. How odd that my MX700 doesnt.
Just another of your pathetic little drug crazed fantasys.
Corse you are, as always.
Pathetic, really.
Completely off with the ****ing fairys, as always.
There is a lot more involved than just the DPI.
Irrelevant to that stupid claim you made about precision.
No noticeable lag with an MX700.
