Anyways, BPM changes are just plainly annoying and shouldn't be used often, it will make your file flow better and make more sense.
No offense, but that is one of the most incorrect statements I have ever heard...EVER.

Last time I checked, Mozart, Beethoven, Choppin, all of THE GREATEST composers of all time used BPM changes regularly. BPM changes show emotion. BPM changes are key parts in many of the great classical songs.

And arent BPM changes the opposite of rhythmic expressions?
