I think I'd rather prefer not having the opt-out option. Although ultimately I feel like if you're malicious enough, you can fool the algorithm to produce the behaviour that you're looking for.

Good work nonetheless.

The need/audience for the opt-out option is for websites with legit behavior that is broken by the guesswork involved in scroll anchoring implementations. If a site wants to be "malicious" towards their users, there are myriad ways to do that already.
