You are right in the fact that it is still supported (I thought it was kind of frozen), but desktop frameworks like KDE are moving more and more to QML.That makes it also easier to port it to phones and tables.

I don't see why Qt Widgets would be easier for desktop apps than QML.There is not that much difference in devices apart from screen size and interaction. But I have not used QML in desktop apps, so and can't say for sure.

I don't know if you used QML already? Anyway, you will have that opportunity once your tablet arrives
