"scrolling seems to be ingrained behavior for anyone with a mouse in their hand"
I suspect that the more prevalent presence of the central scroller for the mouse is a reason why scrolling is more common now, even among novices. The mouse design lends itself to easy scrolling, when you don't have to move specially to the side of the screen to do it. In my experience, on the home page users don't like to scroll, but once they're at a destination page, they will happily scroll.
