I had the same idea already. Yes, I like them too, and it's very tempting to do that. There would even be some functional advantages since the current scrollbars are internally limited to 32K entries and I have to apply a lot of voodoo to support longer lists.
BUT: My experience is that many users/customers (gotta pay the rent) are easily appalled by anything non-standard. Risky...

as i remember one smart man years ago said users don't really know what they want, so sometimes developers "show them what they want".
besides, as i understand such scrollbars would be "less strict" in design abilities compared to system one, so you can make them white by-default(for standard users), dark in dark mode, or even customizable via tweak.
