> It's because scrolling doesn't actually make sense in emacs or vim, if you've put some time into learning how to use them. In vim, for example, you would be much better off navigating with the keyboard than the mouse. Is this coming from a workstation-oriented mindset? On laptops with touchpads, scrolling with your "mouse" makes a ton of sense even for seasoned touch typists. I don't always use it for scrolling, but I frequently do. However when I'm sitting in front of a workstation with a traditional keyboard and mouse arrangement, I do avoid the mouse.
