do the slower speeds on a blender make the ice finer?

I’ve noticed that the ‘icy drink’ speed is the highest, and speeds like ‘puree’ are slow or the slowest. And puree is usually a very fine almost paste from my experience. And ‘icy drink’ implies larger chunks of ice then puree would give you. So if you want very fine ice crystals, do you put your blender on a lower speed? And if so, why? how does it work? It would seem that a faster speed would break up the ice smaller and faster.
