Secondly, the rate at which the emulator runs at is actually irrelevant, for example: we use slowdown ad fastforwards anyway. If we were actually supposed to consider the speed that the emulator runs at, then you could fast forward and say it was completed faster. In other words, the timing of an emulator is arbitrary, and does not truly mean anything.
You weren't serious with this, right? Slowdown and fastforward has nothing to do with actual timing, much like the framerate of a video tape doesn't magically change if you fastforward it. It is then reflected by video output, which always runs at the emulator's default rate.

I wasn't being truly serious, I was trying to say that the timing of an emulator is arbitrary, by using an exagerated example.
Measure once. Cut twice.
