Scrolling jitter

I am not getting jitters on either mobile platform using native scroller.
Scrolling is very smooth. I have 10 or so groups(variable) in a containing
group with 1 or more fields that are clickable. One of the inner groups
contains a small image. I have not seen this or received complaints. I do
get complaints that while scrolling sometimes the fields mouseup handlers
trigger unintentionally. I guess I should put in a timer to ignore the
mouseUPs until a short time after the scrolling stops. Android is most
affected. iOS rarely has this issue.

Today's feedback: It also jitters on iOS. Migraine-inducing. Do people think
this is a serious issue or is it likely to remain like that for a long time?

Does anyone else see significant issues with native scrollers on either
mobile platform? LC 9.6.
