Gemini air scrolling up slower than down

On both of my Gemini air devices, scrolling up in the guide is much slower than scrolling down - the best way to illustrate this is with this video: https://photos.app.goo.gl/sbNuRVpiJjoADpni8 This doesn’t happen with the Roku app nor the Samsung smart tv app. Seems pretty clear to me that it’s a so

I’ve updated to the latest app on all of my Android/Google TV devices and I have the 4K channels, with the exception of the Nvidia Shield. Is this by design or is there a specific video setting that I should use on the Shield?
