Also to the author: This is most likely costing you readers.
Just weighing the pros and cons here:
Pro: People who don't have smooth scrolling mouses will suddenly enjoy smooth scrolling on this website. Even this is a questionable "pro". Most people have scrolling setup how they want it and don't need it fixed on a per-website basis.
Con: Degradating a core function of the computer (scrolling) for people who already have smooth scrolling.
So to summarize: The plugin is not helping anyone read the blog, but it is preventing/annoying many people from reading it.
