I'm going to try to explain, sorry if I'm too long and offtopic maybe.

That's weird and I think you should create an issue about this,
Maybe, BTW IIRC this issue occurred maybe 2 or 3 years ago. Not sure, I should check with FC 0.16 or 0.17.
I use gesture navigation style and panning with RMB (no other modifier required) works without issues, the context menu is not sown on release. I don't get why you don't pan with the middle button though.
Gesture style is quite good, no problem, very efficient. But not so ergonomic.
With CAD nav style I pan with the middle mouse wheel actually, but only in sketcher editing mode, in order to workaround the previously mentioned bug.
CAD navigation style with CTRL and shift keys avoids carpal tunnel syndrome. It's a very ergonomic navigation style.
I don't quite get this, or why anyone would prefer this nav style for that matter
to me it is an unnecessarily cumbersome style requiring two buttons in a specific sequence for rotation, no tilting available and you apparently use a modifier key variation for panning...
Gesture navigation style requires you LMB or RMB click
AND move the mouse, simultaneously.
That's not so good for tendons of the hand because you press with your finger permanently when moving precisely the mouse dynamically. Furthermore it push the mouse on the desk, it increase friction then it slides less easily.
That's why I prefer CAD navigation style, there is no combined efforts on the hand. You can hold CTRL statically with left hand fingers, while you just one click with right hand fingers then move the mouse, relax, during hours. That's ergonomic for right hand tendons, moreover it balance effort on both hands.
When you had modeled a lot since 20 years like me, your carpal tunnel teach all of this to your brain and that's crystal clear
PS: The drawback of CAD style, as you said, it requires two buttons in a specific sequence for rotation or pan. So both hand are busy and a bit of time is lost. But no pain, no gain
