Ok, I found the problem
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/58900/how-to-scroll-the-screen-using-the-middle-click/421672

sauron:~$ xinput
⎡ Virtual core pointer                          id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ USB Optical Mouse                         id=10   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad                  id=14   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech TrackPoint                id=15   [slave  pointer  (2)]

sauron:~$ xinput list-props 15
Device 'ETPS/2 Elantech TrackPoint':
        Device Enabled (152):   1
        libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled (287):       0
        libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled Default (288):       0
        libinput Scroll Methods Available (289):        0, 0, 1
        libinput Scroll Method Enabled (290):   0, 0, 1
        libinput Scroll Method Enabled Default (291):   0, 0, 1

sauron:~$ xinput set-prop 15 "libinput Scroll Method Enabled" 0, 0, 0

And voilà, now middle mouse window size drag works.
Sigh, this was a stupid and unexpected default that was probably set by
windows and saved in the hardware :(

Well, now that this is fixed, things are much better :)
