There's one remaining effect of this in the shell that I can see (there
used to be more): it appears still to be using it to decide whether it's
worth trying to update the terminal when waiting for a key press.  The
lower the speed, the longer it will wait before performing a refresh if
you don't type anything, up to a maximum of half a second.

I suspect there's more going on, so that it's not that simple --- there
are other occasions when terminal refreshes happen.
