With the termination criterion robustified the behavior of this tweak is a bit more as expected. The step size increases which decreases the number of leapfrog steps systematically, although the difference is somewhat small given that the multiplicative expansion limits the distribution of leapfrog steps.
In the normal IID case you can definitely see the increase step sizes “stretching” the nominal behavior, pushing the thresholds to higher dimensions.

@bbbales2 – any thoughts?
