I agree that the brain is very complex, but it isn't a total mystery.  We can 
measure some things and work out some timing requirements.

Examples:

Movies/TV have a minimum frame rate to avoid flicker.

Phone systems have a max round trip latency.
(I think back in the days of satellites, they decided that one sat link was OK 
but 2 was too long.)

You can measure the time to push a button after a light goes on.
That's tangled up with hand/eye coordination for catching a ball or using a 
mouse.


I get (slightly) annoyed by the delay when news shows switch to a (very) 
remote reporter.

I see no reason why a latency requirement couldn't be worked out for something 
like a Zoom meeting.
