Steps to reproduce:

Scrolled a web page and upon lifting your finger from the screen to induce "momentum scrolling".


Actual results:

The page content coasts to a stop more quickly than a standard scroll view.


Expected results:

Expected the page content to coast at the standard deceleration rate. This is subjective so I'll make the argument for it.

Mobile-friendly sites are generally columns of vertical content. Making the web view scroll quickly improves the consumption experience since it helps users scroll through the feed of content with less friction. The standard deceleration rate also helps web pages feel like native app content and removes some of the perceived sluggishness.
