The physics underlying the lapse rate will insure dew point temperatures at some level in the atmospheric column, although the level will increase with global warming (the resulting high (er) clouds may give a positive feedback).
On a planet that is nearly covered with water (> 85 %), it's no surprise that as temperature rises, in most places so does extreme dew point, and therefore also extreme rainfall.

Air with water vapor in it can be described by several important quantities (vapor pressure, relative humidity, humidity ratio, relative fugacity...), but the one we're interested in here is dew point.
Other machines use massive amounts of energy to run a fan to pull air into the machine and extract what water it can, with no regard for the actual dew point of the air in which it is operating.
Dew point is a better measure of what's happening with the humidity because it shows whether or not the actual number of water vapor molecules changes over time.
