Sort of. When the the scroll bar (thumb) is the thing that you want to grab in order to scroll though — where is it?

Because I'm scrolling *down* to reveal new content towards the bottom of the screen. Why should I move my finger "up" if I want to scroll "down" ;)

For touch screens it makes sense, no doubt, but for touchpad and mouse it's debatable. It's clearly a personal preference though, I just hope they never remove the settings option.

Except when you don't realize there is more content to be scrolled in any direction including left and right because there is zero indication.

It makes absolutely no sense with a scroll wheel and yet, by default it's on for them.
