This is true for some things, but I still much prefer a ToC or a textual search, index, etc. for the majority of cases.
I find myself much more frequently ctrl+f -ing my way to content than doing scroll-and-scan nowadays.
Text search with indicators for the search results in the scroll bar is awesome
NGL, it is lit. But it's kind of in minimap territory where you don't actually need a scrollbar to give the same info. Definitely helps with seeing the density of results in certain areas of long docs
