It has to do with bounce processing. Two bounces a week apart from one
address aren't very significant on a list like this one (with several
messages per hour). They are highly significant on a list with one message
a week. It's a hint to the bounce processing (and could probably be named
and described better: I have the feeling that the bounce processing has
advanced since the setting was created, named, and described).
It doesn't control the rate of message flow.
