I've actually noticed the exact opposite as you about vocal entrances: often soloists in slower songs tend to delay their entrances, which I believe is to create a greater sense of suspense and thus a stronger yearning emotion at that moment in the song.

That's exactly what was happening! Since I've been listening to all sorts of music, I hadn't noticed that that was a dividing line.
Thank you for your help!!!
Regarding the statement about losing the beat at 160bpm or so: that's getting much better too
