Well, blur is one of the things that depend on it. If you follow the usage 
of the blur scale, you'll see it also plays a role in the projection 
matrix for 3D-transforms (what the provided samples use) and if 
ScaledBorderAndShadow is not set to "yes", it also affects some other 
scaling values.

This unfortunate dependence is a result of how SSA and then ASS 
histoically developed and required to maintain compaitibility with 
existing subtitles.
