How often do you want to increase the pitch exactly the same amount
as the speed increase, so that the pitch is 30% higher AND the

cases that there would be more for the user to do.
Well actually, I use the option of being able to change both at the
same time quite a bit when listening to music. Some times I just
change the pitch without speed, though this is less frequent, but I do
use all three modes.
I just feel having all three modes gives a maximum level of
flexibility to a user.
What, exactly, do you mean by "both at the same time." You want the song
at a higher pitch, and to be over with sooner? The options I'm
discussing are not exactly the same as the options currently available.
As to flexibility, the options I've described would allow the maximum
flexibility in the least number of options and most understandable
relative to what we have now, where "speed" really doesn't provide
meaningful information to the user when pitch is also changed. So
"maximum level of flexibility" is already achieved. Adding more just
means redundancy for a relatively minimal benefit.
