regardless of "substantially slower" it is indeed slower, I guess it depends on your VPN link, but at the very least your MTU has to be considerably smaller meaning more round trips for "large" objects (anything over 1KiB essentially)

Sure. But as they say, speed kills.

Seriously, higher latencies and lower traffic peaks likely improve anonymity.
