I was under the impression "scrollbar = more to see" has been somewhat of a standard for a while now. The Mac example is just one of those classic UI fails.
The worst are the pages where the scroll wheel doesn't work, even when you can see the scrollbar just fine. I'm always baffled, since no simple page would have that problem. Clearly they developed it and didn't care for breaking it.
In html I would sometimes force the scrollbar to always show to prevent layout stuttering. But otherwise, changing the color of the scrollbar to match the fg and bg colors of the page shouldn't be too big of a deal. And I wouldn't mind if some browser skins would change the default scrollbar colors to match, either.
Scrollbars are already stylized across the web and across programs. Most users don't mind it. With options come the bad choices, which anyone can list on one page.

That's not a great standard because it conflates conveying information with providing control. 001 px width is enough to convey isScrollable info, but makes it impossible to scroll 100 px width makes it easy to scroll, but is a waste of space to convey convey isScrollable info
