Keep in mind that, so long as the touch AC is hit, it's a hit.

It just doesn't do any damage because you didn't hit the target anywhere vulnerable.

I'm looking at the red dragon right now, and the highest its touch AC ever gets in 10.

Just like how hitpoints arguably aren't a hit; they can conceivably represent near-misses that wear down the person.

The only problem is the strict interpretations people have for some things.

Or maybe some times the rules are a little *too* abstract, and open to to many interpretations
