hi
"not to use the speed control method too frequently"
This means not to use it too often. In the Approach this does not make sense because as I said before; if you need to provide accurate spacing on final ALL aircraft need to have speed control.
"just to limit the amout of speed adjustment to minimum? "
This makes sense. There is not usually need to adjust the speed too often. Most pilots will be happy with first, minimum clean speed until a base or 12 NM, then reduce to 180 knots to 8 NM, then reduce to 160 knots to 5/4 NM.
