You are right that you can't finely control engine speed with camshaft rotation but this engine doesn't have an intake camshaft. The intake side is electronically controlled. The video shown here dmonstrates that even at partial throttle conditions the throttle plates remain wide open allowing the valves to control air flow into the cylinder. The orange blocks refer to throttle pressure.
