So, seeing as Tek was the leader in the scope world for decades, always

brightness control, so that a use can just adjust the brightness level, and
the scope would maintain that setting regardless of the sweep speed ??
I don't know the full answer, but the nearest I can think of quickly is that some (or all?) of the 7000-series timebase plugins limit the beam current at slow sweep speeds to prevent CRT burn. That's kind of a sweep-speed-dependent intensity control, but definitely not a comprehensive one.
