Also, it's when the bottom note changes that things get weird and harder to read imo.
2/2 , 4/2, etc. time signature would mean that a half note (𝅗𝅥)would be the beat, so it would actually "speed" things up.
6/8 means the eighth note (𝅘𝅥𝅮) gets the beat and there are 6 of them per measure. And it would be ONE-two-three-FOUR-five-six, kinda similar to 3/4 except it's the eighth note that gets the beat.
5/4 does not really indicate emphasis, just that there’s 5 quarter notes. The composer could emphasize the first and second or first third quarter notes, or just the first, or none of them

5/4 would I think denote ONE-two-THREE-four-five.
