No, he had it right for what the typical driver wants. You want (relatively) larger movements of the joystick to have a small effect on speed when you are at low speeds allowing for fine control. At higher speeds you want (relatively) smaller movements of the joystick to have a large effect on speed in order to properly match the full range of the joystick to the full range of output PWMs.
