Can confirm, though in my case it's a feature, not a bug. My ThinkPad's nipple mouse shows up as a mouse on Wayland, but is not configurable anywhere on X11.

Unfortunately this is a problem with the keyboard reporting itself as a mouse, believe it or not. Libinput may be able filter these out or give them a better name for keyboards that do in fact have integrated pointing devices, but there's nothing we can do at our level, sorry.
