When marking something to copy and paste. You start marking the text and drag to the right. If you drag too far to the right, your highlighting goes away and everything to the left of where you started becomes highlighted. Why would anybody ever want that behaviour? It is exactly the opposite of what you are trying to do.
Oh yeah. Or trying to highlight something including text further down, you want to scroll it a little bit and suddenly it accelerates and you highlighted the wohle page.
This is one of those things that came out of the gate sucking massively and nothing was ever done to improve it. We might be in our 60s some day still fumbling around trying to copy some text.

A variation of this that drives me nuts at work
Trying to highlight part of a url it decides nope you getvall or nothing.
On mobile when you do finally highlight from the right part, but then it scrolls at either 18 pixels per minute or 1000 characters a second.
Who the hell designed that, URLs are structured, you only ever want to copy between the slashes and url parameters.
