That's not *quite* right either - we'll accept changes that make the driver execute faster if there is no effect either way on accuracy. The sorts of things done by other emulators to speed up games can compromise the correctness of the gameplay/physics/graphics/audio/etc. I'm not saying they all do, but There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch applies equally to emulation
