The TODO says we were supposed to do that in 2019–2020 (if I interpreted the enigmatic notation correctly). The comment in hwdb said: > DO NOT USE THIS PROPERTY. This property is kept for backwards > compatibility. The only known consumer, libinput, stopped reading this > property in version 1.9.0. No new entries for this property should be > added. … and we're currently on libinput-1.23.0. Most likely there are no users, and even if they are, they'll just get a slightly misbehaving pointingstick, which shouldn't be too bad.
Files in this directory specify a description of hardware devices, in the form of mappings from modalias-like keys (which identify specific hardware devices) to udev properties. Files in this directory are not read by udev directly. Instead, man:systemd-hwdb(8) compiles them into a binary database. See man:hwdb(7) for an overview of the configuration file format, and man:systemd-udevd.service(8) for a description of the udev daemon. Use 'systemd-analyze cat-config udev/hwdb.d' to display the effective config.
