It is only confusing, if it is on by default, it is not confusing for
someone that manually seeks out the option and enables it themselves.

Hmm, so you feel that enabling scrolling on the desktop is not confusing, but horizontal scrolling in the overview is? 
If there is an horizontal scrollbar, I expect horizontal scrolling with touchpad buttons 6 and 7 to work just as in Nautilus, Evince and every other program. Of course, we could question if a scrollbar is really needed in the overview...
