OTOH you may put in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ that "snippet" which is
given in the reference you found.  To wit:

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "middle button emulation class"
    MatchIsPointer "on"
    Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection

Call a file with that content 01-emulate-middle-button.conf and it
should work after X got restarted. That file name is not so
important but '.conf' suffix is required.
