I can confirm that, while sometimes we also make use of temporary slow mode, we use the slow mode feature in exactly the same way as @dfabulich said. Sometimes I’ll slam a 1d or 4h slowmode on a discussion just by the topic alone, since I know it’s going to cause some ruffled feathers. This allows me and other mods to catch a breath and more people to intervene; it also forces people to think more about what they write, since they know they’re only going to get one chance at it.
