Description

Additional ideas

Keep Clock Throttle default for TAS profile
Perhaps do per core default for throttling? (not sure how this would be cleanly implemented)
Maybe enable VSync by default too? (frame pacing is noticably worse with Audio Throttle, VSync seems to mitigate it however?)

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First locate the default throttling configuration and TAS profile handling, then resolve whether Audio Throttle, Clock Throttle, VSync, or per-core settings should be used; done requires an agreed policy implemented and verified for the affected profiles.
