Download delay?

Ok so I’m not very intelligent and I still wonder what the actual intended use for the download delay is. One possible use that I immediately thought of for a delay between bytes sent was with serin needing time to process each byte received. So if it would be possible to use the Serial Terminal with this delay then one could send a text string to a Picaxe chip and echo it back for example:

<code><pre><font size=2 face='Courier'>main:
serin 0,n2400,b0
serout 0,n2400,(b0)
goto main </font></pre></code>

This still will leave you stuck (without a time out) in serin mode, but would be a welcome addition to the Picaxe Programming Editor.
