It was hard for me to read the article but, It seems he uses this as a method to make more speed. But I agree with your point. I think playing accurately is of course better than overall speed. I ask because, although this may be real or not, at the speeds over 200 (not 240 as there is no videos I can find) he does this accurately, I was just wondering if anyone has even seen him play at these speeds accurately or if it is just a way to get attention in the magazines. Or if this is even possible. The reason I enjoy his stuff is because his album rarely showcases any speed but, when it does, he does this very accurately, it was a surprise to see he has the focus of improving speed because of his style.
