Either they count 'moving on' as a tap, or they just assume that on average you scroll at least twice: "First tap the control, then scroll (usually more than once), find & select your target, and finally move on."

- eterm 11y agoIt might depend on the length of list, and phone and browser, but a quick swipe usually starts it scrolling down, and a quick tap will stop it (there's usually some momentum, it'll stop itself eventually too). For a short scroll then a single hold and swipe will work.
