That's probably the easiest place to change the amount of latency for the underlying components. It's a bit of a blunt tool in that it applies to entire high level block, but it's easy to use. Delving into the innards to make ad hoc changes makes it hard to go back because changing the mask dialog parameters will obliterate all the ad hoc changes. Ad hoc changes to latencies can also be tricky because other (possibly not so obvious) latencies might need corresponding changes.
