Double scrolling since v117.0

Since v117 update I noticed pages scroll way more. With one scroll they do double the amount of lines then previously. I thought I was seeing things, so I reinstalled Firefox v116.0 to make sure and confirmed it was scrolling less with the previous version. I found a setting "mousewheel.system_scroll_override.enabled" set to 'true' by default. Switching to 'false' fixes the scroll amount, but when I was back on v116.0 I checked that setting there and it was also set to 'true' by default, yet no double scrolling. So I have no idea what could cause this issue. Maybe something was 'fixed' with this setting and now it's applied correctly? Or should nothing change with scroll amount when updating from 116 to 117?

The scroll wheel override has been adjusted in 117 (Bug 1845580):

Remove unintuitive mouswheel scroll distance behavior on release builds On the release channel, do not suppress overriding the scroll distance on Windows when:
  • The setting for the number of lines to scroll per mousewheel tick is not the default
  • The scroll speed is fast.
