Yes, the one with great score when it comes to Fitt's law which plays a huge role in UI design. When you put it that way it seems stupid to go from one edge to the other to reach an option. In reality it's an easiest target to hit since it's huge and requires no precision, edge to edge scroll.
I don't know if my screen is too big or my mouse is at a different speed. But for me it takes a lot of effort to do those big movements.
For me as well, as I keep very low sensitivity. Am not even sure they imagined it being used like that most of the times. Am suspecting idea is to use Super key to open window preview and options are access from there. In that case it's on average half of screen away.
But idea is there. Pretty much all OS designers implement this law in some way. Mac does it with their task bar and application menu. KDE, Windows and similar do it with theirs. However I understand your complaint that you'd have to scroll to the top then bottom, but doing so is easy.
