Touchpad has decided to stop working

In that case... let's get rid of it, now. :wink:

sudo apt remove --purge xserver-xorg-input-all

You should be fine with libinput. The xserver-xorg-input may be interferring, so removing it may solve the issue.
If not - or if you have no screen at all, enter recovery mode:

Enable networking
Then arrow key down to Drop to Prompt
and reinstall:

sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-all
