reliably is to move your finger up in a consistent manner without stopping
or slowing down."

Amen to that!!  I tried to come up with an accurate description of this
gesture and when it comes down to it it really is a standard swipe, which
is longer than a flick, but that has feedback given that's entirely
specific to that context.  You don't do anything differently than you do
when doing a normal swipe, other than making sure your starting point is ON
the bottom center-ish of the screen, and stopping when the "correct number"
of vibrations for what you're trying to achieve have been presented to you.

I seem to recall, and I may be incorrect, that you can get away with
pausing at "vibration one" provided you don't lift your finger.  If you do,
the app switcher is what you get.  But if that's not your intention there's
no reason to slow down at all until "vibration two" is issued.

It's an up swipe that so happens to have detents that the phone recognizes.
