#37271 — Gesture to swipe without clicking.

The bensbargains.com site exhibits the problem.
It's a tall list of clickable items.
You scroll by swiping up.
Problem is that about 10% of the time, it also detects
a click that sends you to the page for an item.
When you hit the back button you go back to the top
of the list which may be 10 pages from where you started.

I've experimented with varying the endpoint of the swipe
so it's not a straight line, but that isn't helping.

Is there some particular shape of swipe that might scroll
but prevent the click?

It doesn't falsely click for me (android 7.1, firefox) I tried the 
mobile site and the desktop site.

Make sure you start your swipes with a firm press, not a light glance 
which might be misinterpreted.
