There is code to take missing values as 0 or maximum. So this will scale 1:1
and should not break old DTs.

No. They have a different purpose!

You need to scale values like this:

ti,min-x   ->   0
x          ->   some value between 0 and touchscreen-size-x
ti,max-x   ->   touchscreen-size-x

So the ti, values describe the ADC raw values while the common bindings
describe the size in input-event coordinates.

So we need both specified: raw values and pixel values.
