That's because they are using a fixed-height container element with an "overflow: scroll" on it, which is needed to get that little grey bar at the bottom to complete the "page of paper on grey background" feel.
Which of course completely ignores that a page of paper can't scroll, but I guess doing it in a way where the content is split over multiple "pages" underneath each other is too complicated for a basic website - and would be even more jarring to the average reader.
It's still broken. It seems to use JS to scroll when outside the white area, but this has a different effect from native browser scrolling. On my device the native scroll is smooth but the fake one is immediate and jumps further on each scroll.

What do you mean? On macOS Safari I see a scroll bar that I can drag with my mouse if I wish.
Scrolling the page with mousewheel/multitouch doesn't work unless the pointer is inside the white area
...appears it's been fixed since my original comment. There's still no scrollbar in the expected place on the side of my browser window though.
