I don't see them as scroll bar replicas; good ones are very narrow but high contrast, to easily offer a compact visual sense of article length -- rather than page length, an important distinction when there are cited sources, recommended articles, and a footer menu. Different functions.
IMO, they should coexist with a well-designed vertical scroll bar.
