Something neat I discovered about my first 300 baud terminal is that I could record the connection on a tape recorder and play it back and the whole process would work for a replay.
There was just wide enough tolerance and such a small part of the audio spectrum that it worked. Stopped working with 1200 baud modems. And 2400bps modems initially had a fight over compatibility, 9600bps went completely out the window, hayes vs everyone else.
