Dock does not appear in fullscreen mode unless finger remains on touchpad

I'm using a MacBook M3 Pro, with Sequoia 15.5. I have the Dock set to automatically appear when the cursor hits the bottom of the screen. I am using the touchpad, not a mouse. In fullscreen mode (e.g. iTerm2), it fails to do so. I have to initiate additional downward gestures, sometimes more than once, to coax the Dock into appearing. It turns out that the gestures that don't work all have something in common: they lack the trailing stop (finger remaining on the pad). Steps to repro: 1. Put iTerm2 into fullscreen mode. (Reproduces with other apps like Chrome.) 2. Quickly perform a downward gesture on the touchpad so that the cursor warps to the bottom pixel of the screen, lifting your finger off the touchpad at the end of the gesture. 3. Nothing happens. 4. Initiate somewhere between 1 and 4 more downward swipes; Dock now appears. I found these steps *not* to repro: 1. Put iTerm2 into fullscreen mode. 2. Perform a downward gesture, getting the cursor to the bottom pixel, **without lifting your finger**. 3. Dock appears after an annoying delay (about 300 ms) but reliably. How can we have the same behavior as in non-fullscreen mode, whereby the finger is not required to stay on the touchpad? Note that the hotkey ⌘⌥D is not available in fullscreen mode. Also, is there a way to kill the delay before the Dock appears? (I know about tuning the animation speed with the autohide-time-modifier parameter, which is not related to the initial delay). This question is similar to the nine-year-old, unanswered question https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/252999/disable-autohide-dock-displaying-slowly-when-in-fullscreen However, my problem is with the finger having to remain on the touchpad. The mouse behavior is different. If you make a quick movement to the bottom of the screen, and then quickly stop moving the mouse, nothing happens; you have to make an additional movement to get the Dock to appear. If you continue moving the mouse for some fractions of a second after the cursor hits the edge, then the Dock appears. There is no requirement to keep the finger on the mouse. With the touchpad, even the additional additional downward gestures do not make the Dock appear if the finger does not dwell on the touch pad. If the touchpad behavior were like the mouse behavior (no requirement for lingering finger contact) it would be a big improvement. How do we disable that? I don't use the mouse; it's collecting dust in a drawer. It cannot be used while it is charging, and it required weekly charging, so I just switched to the touchpad. One less accessory to lug when using the laptop on the go, too.
