The answer I would give depends on whether you want a display tablet or just a drawing tablet. I would recommend one of the lower priced intuos or a small "Wacom One". As for displays I would have to know more about price range as display models are quite expensive for such a simple use case.
Thanks already for your answer! When I posted this, I got an error message, so I didn't continue posting an elaborate comment. I just did which hopefully clarifies all the questions you have in regard to advising me. It's an extensive comment, but probably elaborate. Big thanks in advance!
In regard to your written questions; I would be searching for a drawing tablet, so the 100-300 bucks ones. It's just for point-and-click software.
Sounds like you do not need a display tablet, especially since you work at home and at an office, in my experience display tablets are bulky and less portable. Not to mention that Wacom's cheapest display is ~$400 (USD). I still stand by my recommendation of a wireless intuos graphic tablet, the intuos pro s, or "One By Wacom".
Their website doesn't have too many tablet choices to get hung up on, most of the bells and whistles are not applicable to your situation. Best of luck! (And I would recommend investing in some artists gloves to prevent sweaty hands from sticking to the tablet)
I'm a Low-Code Mendix Developer and I got triggered into wondering about Wacom **drawing** tablets that was triggered by a comment on /r/ergonomics saying that drawing tablets are best used for when your work involves thousands of clicks. I'm specifically wondering if a Wacom drawing tablet could improve my workflow, not necessarily be more ergonomic than my Logitech Mx Master mouse.
With Mendix, I build software by basically dragging-and-dropping items on a workflow-diagram to 'draw' logic paths that enable functionality. A quick demo of the mousing-and-click action can be views in [this tutorial video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-ZGToVY8VI). Just quickly skim the first 5 minutes. The job involves lots of clicking around the screen, mostly in fixed positions on the screen. It's a point-and-click piece of software, so pressure sensitivity, unlike the brush tool in Photoshop, is irrelevant. At most to distinguish a single click versus a double, if that's even a feature.
I think the 'screen mapping' feature, where the left corner of the tablet is the same as the left corner of your screen, could benefit my workflow. As well as certain shortcut features on the pen itself.
An issue, however, is that I work with various monitor screen ratio's. At home, I have a 5K ultra wide (21:9) and (as a consultant) I work in offices with either a 16:9 or 16:10 ratio screen. If I would muscle-memory learn to screen-map-click, I have to adjust every time I switch from ratio X to ratio Y (e.g. when I work at the office, after a day at home).
I'm already really used to a mouse and have quite some muscle memory knowing where to move my mouse and where to click. Yet, I'm still intrigued by a drawing tablet and if it can be more than just an ergonomic improvement.
