Yes I was talking about me inputting scrolling events for about ~15 secs.
I've rewatched the video and I'm continuously swiping over touchpad for
about ~10 seconds, and Emacs updates position ~5 seconds after I stopped.

Scrolling speed. With progressive speed turned on it is impossible to use
touchpad because after single swipe the speed builds up so much resulting
in point immediately jumping to beginning/end of buffer.
