Latency can help reduce noise of file events. Changes performed by TextEdit with a latency of 0 look like this:

texteditfile.txt changed (isFile, renamed, finderInfoModified, xattrsModified)
texteditfile.txt.sb-56afa5c6-DmdqsL changed (isFile, renamed)
texteditfile.txt changed (isFile, renamed, finderInfoModified, xattrsModified)
texteditfile.txt changed (isFile, renamed, finderInfoModified, inodeMetaModified, xattrsModified)
texteditfile.txt.sb-56afa5c6-DmdqsL changed (isFile, modified, removed, renamed, changeOwner)
texteditfile.txt changed (isFile, renamed, finderInfoModified, inodeMetaModified, xattrsModified)

While an increased latency coalesces (combines) events that produce:

texteditfile.txt changed (isFile, renamed, finderInfoModified, xattrsModified)
texteditfile.txt.sb-56afa5c6-SOiDRl changed (isFile, renamed)
texteditfile.txt changed (isFile, renamed, finderInfoModified, inodeMetaModified, xattrsModified)
texteditfile.txt.sb-56afa5c6-SOiDRl changed (isFile, modified, removed, renamed, changeOwner)

(Note that they are reported as event pairs, which can be interpreted by the library if necessary, but currently isn't.)
