You are a data point for the notion I mention in my own reply to the parent that keyboard-only navigators might be feeling this more than mouse/trackpad users. Which seems likely to me.
Agreed. I elaborated a bit more in a sibling comment about how many keybinds result in opening a pane and focusing it, and it’s just not built for being operated by keyboard. Although you could make the argument that using the mouse just hides all the latency. Scrolling through text buffers is super smooth… but at what cost?
