SUMMARY
Bounce key delay doesn't seem to use the correct value. When I set it to 100
(the lowest it seems to accept) I can mash a single key and it rejects quite a
few presses. There is no unit of measurement next to the value, but I assume
it's milliseconds. I would expect far fewer rejections for it to truly be set
to 100ms. The main reason I was looking into this is because I have a
mechanical keyboard that's chattering like crazy and discovered there's a
built-in feature to reject double-key presses.
Additionally, I had a friend test this setting out and he can't even type
sentences without rejection. Something is definitely a bit off with the delay.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Navigate to System Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard Filters
2. Enable "Bounce Keys"
3. Adjust delay to 100 (Think default was 500?)
4. Ensure "Ring system bell when rejected" is enabled for easier debugging
5. Click Apply at the bottom right
6. Repeatedly mash a key as quickly as you can and wait for rejections.
OBSERVED RESULT
Far too many keys are rejected.
EXPECTED RESULT
I don't even think I can press a key 10 times in a second. I would expect a
much lower, if not null, rejection rate. Keys get rejection just from words
that have double letters.
