You're wrong here: what you're seeing when pressing multiple fingers on
the touchscreen is some kind of "average" position. Typically the
"mousepointer" ends up in the middle between the two fingers pressing
the screen, just try it in the drawing application.

The scrolling in the webbrowser just made you believe that it would be
doing something sensible, it really does not.

Bye,
