I tend to scroll my websites at the very right edge for example and often have the case that I'm to far right with my thumb (the rounded display edge of the N4 encourages that) so that the application switcher gesture overrides my scroll action (this does not happen very often, but often enough that I noticed it and try to scroll a few pixels left of it nowadays)
