Thanks for reporting this.  And I concede the wording is slightly ambiguous.

The code in question is in file apps/speed.c. The patch is "trivial". See below.

However, changing it in Debian only seems to me to be a decision that is up to the official maintainer(s). Since I expect they will not do so, I am going to tag this wontfix.

You can submit the patch (with you own desired wording, or course) to upstream via email to [email protected].
