It's not about speed, but about being able to set the bug aside.
Yes, I was agreeing with you - like I said, grouping together all the work into one "transaction" has value, and DELAYED enables that.

When I said "unacceptably slow" I meant something more like latency rather than time taken: it seemed to me as though there was a suggestion that we should be choosing between proposing MRs (or patches) *or* doing a delayed NMU, but in the scenarios where DELAYED is relevant, I'd prefer contributors to consider sending a MR (or patch) *and* doing a delayed NMU.
