How to get rid of the delay way before Lenovo touch pad reacts

On my Lenovo T460p, I have a "delay way" before touch pad movement or scrolling is registered. Note: This delay way is not to be confused with inactive areas of the touchpad as configurable through synclient and used e.g. for clickpad features. This can more be compared to "dead zones" of joysticks, which only react after a certain amount of movement.

When I touch the pad and start moving my finger, at first, nothing happens. I have to move the finger for a few millimeters before the mouse pointer would respond. It then registers the movement completely, which means that whenever I start using the touch pad, I have a skip by tens of pixels in the pointer movement. This makes the touch pad unusable for any "precision" work, such as hitting the close button on a tab.

This also happens after I let the finger rest within a movement for a second or so. The same happens for two-finger scrolling. These are the xinput settings:

Has anyone a solution for this?

I have tried to set Noise Cancellation to 0, 0, but that did not help.

This is on Debian testing (stretch). Fedora 24 Workstation Live Image also shows the same issue.

2019-11-20: The problem still persists. Here is a screen capture of how the cursor behaves when I roll my finger up and down without pause on the touchpad (no "movement", just rolling the fingertip).

I am still on Debian testing (which is nowadays bullseye).
