Would anyone want a stylus with hooked tip?

This is a writing pen, but the tip design is interesting. One of the biggest woe of drawing screen is you can’t see well what under your hand. This tip design fix that problem, but tilt support is likely going to be sacrificed.

Another problem is if this design is actually viable. Wacom EMR had the sensor not at the tip and it already took them years to be able to perfect calibration with the regular tip. AES based pen maybe more viable because the touchscreen sense at contact, but I don’t really understand how it works, or how big the pen tip assembly need to be.

I don’t really have a problem using a traditional pen tip. I don’t think I could write with one of these. Plus, it looks like a dental tool and would give me the willies.
