No, it does not: it produces the 2× speedup bu dropping one frame out of
two, instead of doubling the frame rate.

So do I.

I do not think that it works better: it fails in more subtle ways, that are
harder to predict and notice. I find it better to fail hard immediately and
let the user fix it instead of letting the user notice after possibly
24+ hours of encoding that the video is choppy.
