I was wondering if it's possible to speed up the hidden Stage Manager recents windows. For the Dock you can use:

defaults write com.apple.dock "autohide-delay" -float "0" && killall Dock

This wil show the Dock immediately when you move your mouse to the bottom of the screen. When you move the mouse to the left to show the hidden Stage Manager recents windows there is a slight delay of say 0.5 seconds. So I was wondering if we can set that delay to 0.
 
seems there would be...

funny, i use that terminal command to keep the dock from ever appearing (since about os 10.3.9); i never use the dock, so it's set to '10000'...
 
I use stage manager with Context app switcher (perfect solution for me) and I want to disable stage manager recent windows showing up when I move cursor to the left (I use most of apps fully zoomed). I do not need this and it bothers me when I want to do something close to the left edge. I already changed dock delay to 999 and I call the dock with a shortcut whenever I need it. I wanted to do sth similar for the stage manager (I mean to delay like 999).
 
Try
Code:
defaults write com.apple.WindowManager autohide-delay 0; killall WindowManager
 
Doesn't work.

To reset the stage manager to original settings after you try messing with it:
defaults delete com.apple.WindowManager; killall WindowManager;
