Too sensitive trackpad?

My post i the general forum was deleted because I am running on Sequoia beta. The issue seems to occur regardless of macOS version.

MacBook Air (M1, 2020): Trackpad reacts to the slightest touch, either moving thw cursor or clickin. Obviously I have adjusted settings and it's still too sensitive.

If I don't take my fingers completely away from the trackpad as I use it, I often find new windows opening, dialog boxes popping up, ads getting clicked on, etc.

I have gone into trackpad preferences several times and adjusted everything I can find that ought to help and it doesn't. Disabling “touch to click” remedies the unintentional clicks, although I would like to keep that functionality of workin as intended. The other nuisances remain.
