The coefficient of speeding up is not the same at different moments in the edit and it varies dynamically so I couldn't figure out how to make it change dynamically too. It's also distracting and we want folks to focus on the chaining of difficult tasks for now, not necessarily the speed, which will increase soon but was not our focus (for now).

I think though that it's very clear that it's sped up a lot at some moments. Plus, you can sort of see it at the speed of the messages on the left.

But you're right, for the sake of transparency we'll figure out a way to show it better.

EDIT: For the sake of transparency I can already tell you that it's sometimes sped up to 10x, mostly when it's navigating cause the robot hardware is slow. And by the way, the version we'll ship in February has a much faster drive train.
