Thanks for this summary! But I remain puzzled...

As I understand it, `wheel-scale` ends up being 4 on your machine. So
removing the multiplication by `wheel-scale` means that `amt` is 1/4 of
what it used to be. But `amt` is effectively always divided by
`WHEEL_DELTA`, which you've also divided by 4 in switching to
`WHEEL_DELTA_S`.

It seems like those factors of 1/4 would cancel out. Do the numbers
passed to `do-key` end up being different in some way that I'm missing?
