Yes.

Because the overlay stays put for a prolonged time and distracts my
attention.
Also, a prolonged highlight looks like part of the buffer's
fontification, so it's not easy to understand what it wants to say
until it goes away. A short blink of the highlight, by contrast, does
a very good job of instantly showing me where the spot is, and then
disappears, leaving me with only the normal buffer contents.
I might agree to a longer default delay if the overlay would go away
the moment some input event comes in; currently it doesn't.
In any case, this issue sounds very minor to me, hardly something we
should bother with now.
