Sorry, I'll try to do a better job of explaining the issue.

By false positive I mean that I try to click or move the pointer but libinput
ignores it because the tap started in an exclusion zone. I find myself tapping
in an exclusion zone frequently. It is very frustrating to have my taps ignored
and to not be able to use the full area of my touchpad.

I did not include debugging information because according to
https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/palm_detection.html this
behavior is intentional.

If it is not currently possible to disable palm detection then I suggest adding
the option to do so for people who prefer the reliability of being able to use
the entire touchpad over minimizing palm clicks.
