+   wheel event is fired, so that all subsequent wheel events within a
+   implementation-specific amount of time can be targetted at the same
+   element.

+   <p class="example">
+   If a series of wheel events targetted in a scrollable element start
+   above a child element, later events for the same user gesture may
+   occur over the child element. In the case that {{Event/preventDefault()}}
+   is called in a wheel event handler for the child element, targetting
+   the child element could result in unexpected behavior for the user.

IMO the last sentence is not necessary and might confuse more than clarify.
