Wouldn’t a good definition of availability be the ability to deliver something with certain performance & features? Saying availability > speed implies that one can be traded for the other. But availability is a function of speed, so they can’t be treated independently.

A classic example of a speed/availability trade-off is a cache. Introducing a cache often increases speed, but also creates a severe availability risk, in that the cache can be another point of failure, and that a cold cache can lead to an unrecoverable state.
