However, all version query results I have seen from Elantech touchpads have
a non-zero first byte and a zero second byte. So we could test for that to
prevent this mouse from being detected as a touchpad.

Dmitry, do you think something like this is sufficient?

This is still slightly wrong. The mouse does work, but is misnamed in the dmesg output and in /proc/bus/input/devices:
