Scroll wheel goes back through the dialog. If your last action was not text-based, it'll repeat that instead. That's why you can scroll around the preg wheel and redo it until you get the result you want.

This is called rollback, it's a "basic" Renpy feature most games have. They blocked it in 0.20 and re-enabled it with the 0.21 code rework

As explained above, this is very much a feature and not a bug. You can also scroll in the other direction to redo previously undo steps.

Scroll wheel use applying to both the rollback system and on occasion vertical scrolling of viewports is unfortunate, but intentional. I don't know that there's a good way to solve this issue - the scroll wheel being attached to rollback is too "standard" for Ren'Py games to realistically move away from, and disabling scroll wheel use in viewports poses much of the same issue. Unless or until we can come up with or someone can suggest a reasonable and workable middle ground, this will remain as is.

Closing as there's not really much to explore here.
