Uses of Slow Effect

I know this has been suggested a few times already, but I wanted to make my own thread discussing the uses I see with a slow effect.

Compact Minis
Especially paired with the low jump effect, and with half tiles, there's potential here to create miniature minis, to fit that much more room within a world, without requiring larger worlds.

Music
Slow effect can allow more musical space by allowing slower songs without taking humongous space, and can allow a "slow play" mode if you want to listen to a slower version of a song.

Zombies, but without zombies
Whatever use the low jump of zombies can be replaced with a slow effect, so that players won't be killing or hindrancing each other if they come in contact.  (For example, like with music worlds)

Races
Either as a power-down or something everyone has, which could allow for more exciting platforming or obstacles as you'd have more than a second to react.  Big dots, climbables, and mud don't allow you to jump.

One point I've seen against this is that it can be used to annoy players.. like stacking slow and zombie on a long track of mud.  But.. it's a sandbox game, anything has the potential to be used badly.  Nothing's stopping a player from making a one block square spiral around a huge world filled with mud, but we still have mud.

There are likely other uses too, but I think there is enough to warrant implementation.  I mean, we essentially already have it in the form of zombies, so why not allow a spreadless version of it?

Re: Uses of Slow Effect

Making humans as slow as zombies so zombies vs humans is balanced tho

Giving humans slow speed, but zombies fast speed

Like in the movie “I’m legend” - zombies became mutants with fast speed
