+/// Workarounds for the SwiftUI paged `TabView` on iOS 15.
+///
+/// On iOS 15 SwiftUI implements `.tabViewStyle(.page)` with a compositional layout that pages
+/// orthogonally: the horizontal paging is performed by an embedded `UIScrollView` subview of the
+/// collection view (private class `_UICollectionViewOrthogonalScrollerEmbeddedScrollView`), while
+/// the collection view itself only scrolls vertically. Because `PagerView` can only toggle the
+/// collection view, on iOS 15 `scrollEnabled={false}` / `overdrag={false}` never reached the view
+/// that actually handles the swipe.
+///
+/// On iOS 16 and later the collection view itself is the pager, so none of this is needed — the
+/// `#available` checks below make every function in here a no-op on those versions.
+///
+/// - Note: Delete this file together with the two `PagerViewIOS15Compat` calls in `PagerView.swift`
+///   once the minimum supported iOS version is 16.
