AFAIU from bug comments there what's happening there is that libinput implements gestures (such as pinching), and so it waits a bit more (4 mm of motion in one finger) before starting to scroll, while the Xorg synaptics drive doesn't support gestures and can start scrolling immediately. And then the suggested workaround to disable gesture support doesn't work for unclear reasons.
