Although my education, long ago, was in physics, I do not really understand the physics of electric motors.
Are there reasons to limit the rate of change of acceleration? for example: Are there reasons that one would not want to go from max acceleration in one direction to max acceleration is the opposite direction? If so under what circumstances? What kind of motors?
