Ignoring scrollbar width in CSS vw?

CSS vw is pretty useless.

The problem with vw is that, when you use vw for width, it gives you the width of the viewport which includes the scrollbar width as well. Whereas the scrollbars are not a part of the website width and are always variable across different devices.

So whenever you use say, 100vw, you would always get 100% of the browser width plus some extra width because of the scrollbars which makes vw pretty much unusable.

Is there any way you can ignore the scrollbar widths while using vw?
