No idea what C-scroll does. Is it same / similar to C-x C-+ / C-x C--? If so, I think it's designed to increase / decrease in steps that would fit into desired resolution... but I'm not 100% sure about it. This is something I never really use outside of situations where I have to present (i.e. show my screen on some large screen for many people to see and the need me to zoom in / out).

I didn't really have problems with this even though I too use a tiling manager (StumpWM).

Yes.

  C-<wheel-up> at that spot runs the command mouse-wheel-text-scale
  (found in global-map), which is an interactive native- 
  compiled Lisp
  function in ‘mwheel.el’.

  It is bound to C-<wheel-down>, C-<wheel-up>, C-<mouse-5> and
  C-<mouse-4>.

  (mouse-wheel-text-scale EVENT)

  Adjust font size of the default face according to EVENT.
  See also ‘text-scale-adjust’.

>the need me to zoom in / out

I just prefer it, if I have little text, for it to be big. Why waste it on whitespace?
