in many situations we need to scroll both vertically and horizontally -- for example a Excel spreadsheet / google sheets, or maps
even on touch screens -- depending on the UI -- if the entire display area is "hot" the scrollbars might be the only way to pan around without editing / triggering other actions

- albert_e 2y agoone can also use page-up / page-down / home / end / arrow / ctrl+arrow etc. ... if keyboard has to be used. scroll bars indicate visually how big the scroll area is and where you are ... and let you directly click or drag you position. there was a lot of useful functionality available at a single mouse click that has been sacrificed in pursuit of visual prettiness / minimalism.
