Slow mode controls an entire channel, and is like denying the send message permission temporarily, then regranting it, and with permission changes already under manage channel, that (in my opinion) invalidates this suggestion. |

The current requirement to modify the "slowmode" of a channel is the manage channel permission, which is an extremely powerful permission that lets you completely delete the channel and all of its content, permanently.
Slowmode is an extremely valuable moderation tool, that explicitly targets the message frequency in a channel. A logical and far more appropriate permission for managing this setting, is manage messages, which also allows users to bypass it as well.
I argue that the ability to delete an entire channel should not be grouped in the same permission as the ability to slow down message frequency.
