Totally agreed. The thing I think contributes most to this impression is how local voice is recorded at all times on the client, and then replayed at a higher speed to the other participants if the connection drops briefly. This enables others to hear what was said, without having to listen to the speech at the original pace, which would result in a delay. Genuis!

This has been standard practice with video calling products for many years. I know at least FaceTime and Duo do it. It might even be built into WebRTC?

MS Skype for Business and Teams also do this, just to give two more examples that I’m aware of.
