'WPM_UNFILTERED' is potentially useful if you're filtering data in some other way (and also because it reduces the code required for the WPM feature), or if reducing measurement latency to a minimum is important for you.

/* The WPM calculation works by specifying a certain number of 'periods' inside
* a ring buffer, and we count the number of keypresses which occur in each of
* those periods. Then to calculate WPM, we add up all of the keypresses in
* the whole ring buffer, divide by the number of keypresses in a 'word', and
- * then adjust for how much time is captured by our ring buffer. Right now
- * the ring buffer is hardcoded below to be six half-second periods, accounting
- * for a total WPM sampling period of up to three seconds of typing.
+ * then adjust for how much time is captured by our ring buffer. The size
+ * of the ring buffer can be configured using the keymap configuration
+ * value `WPM_SAMPLE_PERIODS`.
*
- * Whenever our WPM drops to absolute zero due to no typing occurring within
- * any contiguous three seconds, we reset and start measuring fresh,
- * which lets our WPM immediately reach the correct value even before a full
- * three second sampling buffer has been filled.
