Certainly, but the inertial scrolling on OSX actively encourages flicking as a mechanism to scroll a long distance. A genuine feature IMO.

…except, if you happen to be in a browser and at the far left or right of a page, then a big context switch suddenly occurs and navigational action is performed, potentially losing valuable state.

The use of two finger "flicking" is unnecessarily overloaded. Apple can solve this by making 3-finger navigation the default.
