Maybe I'm being saved by uBlock but I didn't notice any scroll hijacking or right-click interference.

Edit: uBlock is blocking one analytics script and there are no other scripts on the page. Disabling uBlock doesn't seem to affect page behaviour.

Entirely possible, I'm on a work-issued laptop and I can't install extensions, because raw-dogging the internet is safer than letting employees block ads.

I'm guessing you're on Edge if you're in that predicament; in that case you should check if you can set tracker blocking to "strict". It doesn't work completely like an ad blocker (it doesn't hide broken elements for instance) but that may block loads of unwanted content without needing permission to install addons.
