But it *is* horizontal scrolling.

But it doesn’t *have* to use horizontal (browser based) scrolling, it could use buttons as Netflix does (I think) to make it a carousel, so it is not essential. The toolbar exception was aimed at interfaces where you need the content and a toolbar visible at the same time.

I wouldn’t fail it either because it is: Content presented without loss of information or functionality, and without requiring scrolling in two dimensions for … Horizontal scrolling content at a height equivalent to 256 CSS px.

I agree it is worth documenting this case, either as an example or an advisory technique.
