The rough analogy can be TV broadcast, when corrupted image is displayed but the whole stream is not delayed. It's important to understand, that latency retention has its cost, the player skips a part of stream to preserve latency. When initial latency has become greater than the specified value (due to whatever reason, like network conditions or CPU performance), it forces player to reestablish the initial latency as it becomes possible.
