The chart does not describe speed (either in general or in any particular case). Speed/performance/latency is a thing users care about that is not included in the feature list.

Yea that one is fine and well covered in the blog post, and pretty easy to spot in light testing. I'm much more worried about the ones that are harder to spot until you have a false negative that turns into a real bug which would be caught by 1 tool and not another.

I can't recall a single time that type-checker speed was the limiting factor for me.

I can't say I've been bottlenecked on it, but I've certainly been bothered by it.
