Finally, Jesus Christ. They had broken their own builtin for this (historically handled via `defaults write` for at least 6 years, maybe longer.
That was possible in earlier versions with globalpreferences. The real killer feature is disabling the scroll acceleration.
That setting broke a long time ago. Hasn't worked for ages, which is why people have relied on more extreme approaches like those of SteerMouse, CursorSense (same author) and LinearMouse.
