I prefer them at one end, together, at bottom.


So does iTunes. It now ignores any other choice. A bug, hopefully, not a
"feature."

And now, they're available in any color as long as it's black!

Seriously, it is true. The other available configurations are supported perfectly well by the standard scroll bars. Have been for years, across multiple OS from 10.0 (and before, really) right up to the current moment. Just because every power-user feature is (rightly) not exposed in System Prefs, that doesn't automatically make it "unsupported", nor does it make iTunes (or the OP) free to ignore the user's choices.

In iTunes, a scrollbar replacement got a marginally spiffier look but the full functionality of what it was trying to replace was left unfinished, effectively back-porting carelessness across sixteen OS revs all the way back to 10.3.9. Whatever UI travesty the OP may have originally been considering, it won't cut a swath that wide.

No doubt both OP and iTunes have their reasons for screwing around with the scroll bars. They just aren't good reasons.
