Nope.  If you're using a background and the elements are just the blue
area (the green being empty margin space between them), then there's
no reason it would need to allow scrolling to the gutter.  With my
suggestion of overlapping elements and a negative scroll-snap-margin,
there's also no problems - the "overly large elements" stuff is based
on the scroll snap area, which my suggestion shrinks to not include
the green parts.
