Three things
1) A horizontal scroll bar gives a visual feedback of where you are. I have
very wide files with empty spots. You can get lost.
2) Scroll bars allow to move the visual ara without moving the cursor. (Ok,
that migth be achievable with keys, too.)
3) Scroll bars are good for going far in large files. Well, 90% of navigation
consists of short distances in small files. But for the remaining 10%, scroll
bars are much better.
