Let's not forget Keouac was jacked up on amphetamines the whole time he wrote On the Road, which might also have effected his "feverish" or erratic behavior and may have been a factor in his scrolling habit. I think it makes a lot more sense that he did that, and found the process of adding a new page "stunting", when you have that context.
