Right. For what it's worth, at least some of these delays are configurable in Armageddon ("Hot-Seat Time" and "Retreat Time").

There is a spicy game mode in Armageddon called Paranoia (https://worms2d.info/Paranoia), in which these delays, plus the turn duration, are all set to zero, meaning players have exactly one frame to make their move. As you can imagine it is very hectic!
