Is it "just" that the new settings become active immediately and so if
you change the relative duty_cycle from 50% to 80% and the current
period is "done" between 50% and 80% you get three instead of one level
change during that period?

If it's that, I'd describe that as: When configuration changes are done,
they get active immediately without resetting the counter. This might
result in one period affected by both old and new settings.

Best regards
Uwe
