Comment (by tomysshadow):

 I just hopped into the game again to confirm this for extra sure, and
 noticed something else interesting:
 -if I just click on the lever and let go immediately, it works the way I
 said. I don't need to hold down the mouse to move it, and it'll only let
 go when I click a second time.
 -if I click and hold the lever for some time, then (and only then) it will
 let go as soon as I release the mouse, similar to what ScummVM currently
 does. But this only happens if I hold the mouse button down for a long
 time. If I just do a normal mouse click on it, then it waits for a second
 click before letting go.

 Perhaps this nuance is the reason why it was missed.

 Also, to clarify: I just tested the scopes in the J'nanin tower on my
 copy, and those are a click and drag interaction. They do not behave the
 same as the lever in Voltaic for me.

 Btw, the original game still works on Windows 11 as long as you have
