So, there is no need for burst parameters. As the limitation is user

I don't think this follows. Users often will send for example two
messages right in a row which are effectively one message. An admin
may wish to allow this kind of short burst even for per-jid limits.
If this is intended to be used in streaming and models Twitch and the
likes, no. There is no burst functionality.
One reasoning I could think is that it is easy to game the system around
burst. And making slow mode as simple as possible makes the attack
surface smaller.
(stuff like this has been extensively tested by streamers during hate
raids, spam attacks and the likes.)
There's also a question of if this should interact with affiliation.
Perhaps a setting to allow admins to exempt members from the rate limit.
For context this is not what happens currently in any other streaming
platform afaik.
Twitch, Youtube, etc.
When you slow down the chat, you slow down everybody. I imagine not
slowing down members is not useful in this situation also because there
may be thousands of members.
