Why would you want to associate one hand movement with a different axis? And how does this behave with a touchpad or screen, where you'd be swiping from side-to-side?

I've tested it with a screen, and it works well. But you're right, when user moves side-to-side with touchpad, it doesn't work, because of the preventDefault. When I have the time, I will update the post to include this information. Thanks!
