Mouse electronics count fringes. A serial port mouse sends the position

Yes, but the resolution would be awfully low. I suspect many mouse circuits
have severe limits on how many counts they can accept per second. Also,
losing a few counts here and there is not an issue with a mouse, but losing
even one count would be bad news for a DRO.
