I think you are missing the different functions of the two sorts of software.
Page Up & Page Down go back to the days of dumb terminals connected to a mainframe or minicomputer and a page referred to a full screen of data. Back in the late '70s & early '80s I used to support some terminals connected to a Data General Nova minicomputer, where all the editing was done on the Nova. About the only editing you could do directly on the terminal was inserting & deleting characters. The page keys would move the display through the document, with only a small amount of overlap, that is with a Page Down, the bottom line on the old screen would become the top line on the new. The reverse occurred with Page Up. There was no mouse either, just cursor keys, though another system I worked on used a joy stick.
