Mouse scroll setting missing in Ubuntu

[Nav]

Normally, system settings GUI should have a setting, which is not available in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. It is the option to set the number of lines to scroll on using the mouse wheel.

Upstream bug:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/79
refers to key repeat settings being hard to find but they are
there under Accessibility | Typing | Repeat Keys

Mouse speed settings are also there with additional options in
the Tweaks application under 'Keyboard & Mouse'

Any requests for options not included should probably be reported
directly to the writers of the software, i.e. the GNOME developers.

Yes the key repeat settings exist, but in a poorly-designed location where people might not find them:

Settings > Universal Access > Typing > Repeat Keys

And the mouse speed is:

Settings > Mouse & Touchpad > Mouse > Mouse Speed

So that only leaves the the scrolling speed unconfigurable.
