For me, there is no difference with Emacs 28. To see this best, make the following customizations:

(setq mouse-wheel-progressive-speed nil)
(setq mouse-wheel-scroll-amount '(1 ((shift) . 1)))

(and make sure that in the Mouse Options part of the Accessibilty panel of the general System Preferences of MacOS, scrolling with inertia is enabled.)
