Why do we need this? Should it have a comment?

As you mentioned in previous comments, relying on zero delta hints is enough. I
deleted the redundant parameter.

       // Default initialized to ScrollUnits::PrecisePixels.
       ScrollUnits delta_hint_units;
       // If true, this event will skip hit testing to find a scroll
       // target and instead just scroll the viewport.
       bool target_viewport;
       // The state of inertial phase scrolling. OSX has unique phases for normal
       // and momentum scroll events. Should always be UnknownMomentumPhase for
       // touch based input as it generates GestureFlingStart instead.
       InertialPhaseState inertial_phase;
       // True if this event was synthesized in order to force a hit test;
