Hopefully. My MUA calls him Evgkeni.

Not overly.

I have no idea why this should matter. Maybe `mouse-pixel-position'
calls interact in some strange way.

Can't you try with a real mouse?

I recently read in a thread on help-gnu-emacs:
Horizontal scroll bar is missing entirely from window.
How would the OP use it without a mouse? Or do we have a second

The vertical border (including the feature that hovering the mouse over
the adjacent fringe or text on the left should allow to drag it) is IMHO
a very fragile construct and moreover absent when scrollbars are used.
Hence I'd rather shift the discussion of problems with the <=> cursor to
dividers which should not suffer these drawbacks.
