Recently I've been on a binge of trying out DS shooters that control the aiming via touchscreen, and just using my thumb I can hold the handheld like a normal console controller, with aiming similar to having a right thumbstick. Can't imagine fiddling with a stylus to aim, ew.

And no I don't have long fingernails, just completely normal human ones. I'm also not worried about damaging the screen - if anything, fingernails are softer than hard plastic.

Am I really the only one?

Made a poll in the comments, please vote by upvoting, I'm curious.

Some games I use fingers like monster hunter but mostly I use a stylus.

Never got the chance to test an actual DS, but controlling the bottom screen on the Old 3DS was a miserable experience for me, and in the New 3DS XL the bottom screen was big enough for the precision to be bearable. While losing some reaction time, I much prefer the stylus.
