I forgot about other futile attempts to find a suitable heuristic:

  (define-key gnus-article-mode-map [return] 'my-gnus-article-press-or-scroll)
  (defun my-gnus-article-press-or-scroll ()
    (interactive)
    ;; When point is at the bottom of the window while scrolling
    (if (eq (point) (save-excursion (move-to-window-line -1) (point)))
        (View-scroll-line-forward)
      (gnus-article-press-button)))

Here the button is pressed when point is not at the bottom,
because point moves to the bottom while scrolling.
But in `emacs -Q` I see that point remains at the top
while scrolling.  So this behavior depends on customization.
