Trackpad ergonomics

I've had the same issues with the trackpad and my wrist. This video helped me figure out how to use the trackpad better. https://www.flexispot.com/spine-care-center/trackpad-vs-mouse/

Trackpad scrolls very fast when clicking sometimes I do a lot of "click and slowly highlight text" while reading, and often times but not always, it will either instantly scroll to the bottom of the page (while still highlighting), or it will start scrolling at t steady rate (usually downwards) until I either release the trackpad or move my finger (when it scrolls VERY quickly to the bottom or top of the page), or it will stay still while I have my finger staying still but will scroll instantly to the bottom the moment I move my finger even very slowly. It also happens that when I click and drag even when its not INSTANTLY moving to extremes, that even a small motion will cause scrolling to accelerate quite quickly. If I don't keep the cursor VERY close to its original position, I find myself half-way down the page in a flash. I never have this issue with non-dragging scrolling, and notably, changing the scrolling speed setting doesn't change this behavior at all. Even turning off scrolling inertia doesn't change this (which I suppose is great because this means I don't have to suffer through non-inertia scrolling as a fix lol) I've even been able to replicate it and watch my hand to make sure I'm not accidentally resting my palm on the trackpad and messing it up somehow like that. Does anyone have any clue what setting this might be related to?
