So, it held steady at 33.26 with a record on (plus the weight of the iPhone of course). The speed did not change when I put the tone arm down (I have a Shure M97x at 2g with brush down).
Just cleaned the belt and drive spindle and edges of the sub-platter - so all relevant surfaces - and it's now holding at 33.27. That was a great suggestion because the belt was kind of stuck to the edges of the sub-platter and everything was just a bit tacky to the touch. Probably more tar from the years of cigarette smoke. When I cleaned the power cord and interconnects for the first time a lot of brown gunk came off so It should have occurred to me to clean the belt. Thanks!
So, I'm proclaiming success with the average speed (knock on wood)!
I might test the wow and flutter in due course, and I'll get a couple spare belts for the future anyway.

It seems like there is a split among people who have done both. Of course it would be easy enough for me to give it a try.

I don't think there's anything good about it.
I noticed that you could hear the music before it played, like pre-echo. Not only through the speakers but you could hear it in a dead silent room from right off the record.
And, where is that dust going that it's "picking up"?
Nope, I learned my lesson with the Shure V15/Type V.
