The newer phosphor-coated "filament" LED's also have this "inertia" which is nice. And no other electronics to fail also since they are just series-connected LED's.

The phosphors do have some inertia, but I'm not sure if it's really enough, since fluorescents have phosphor coatings too and those are notorious for noticeable flicker. Different kinds of coatings though, different thickness and quantities of phosphors, maybe different composition too. I don't know how comparable they really are.
