For example, pulling "down" on a scrollbar handle
still requires much manual snoopervision (and the
associated dexterity) to keep the mouse-pointer
inside that itty-bitty narrow track.
A scrollbar-handle should understand its function
and know that "down is down", like friendlier
X-windows based widgets have for the last fifteen
years.
Until Microsoft can get user-friendly widget
behavior, it should not be considered for home
or non-specialist use.
