i don't see what tornament speed has to do with it.
no matter how fast it is, whilst in the green zone you play green zone strategy. taking extremes suppose tornament speed was very very very fast, but the starting stack was sufficent to last the first hour and still be in the green zone. no way are you going to play any other way than green zone stragtgy no matter how fast tornamnet speed right?

ESSENTIALLY your M dictates your strategy, NOT tornament speed as the following demonstrates.
suppose i am in orange zone, but the blinds double up next hand putting me in red zone. obviously i will still play orange zone strategy and not red.

Tournament speed determines how long a stack size will be in a zone without playing and winning a hand. M determines the zone you are in and what hands/how hands should be played.
