Yes, these are documented features and not some kind of obscure off-label workaround. What I mean is that the use of these features serves as a workaround (or, if you like, an "alternative") when simple mouse selection should work but behaves erratically.

The mouse issue you describe sounds like a feature as well, since you can mark things off screen by simply going over the edge on the left side.

This is extremely annoying on phone, but I never had that issue when it wasn't some webpage with multiple elements like advertising and share buttons and scripts in between.
