Sound travels at ~1ft per ms in air so 10ms equivalent to being 10ft away. Sure, you notice the lag at that distance but it’s still possible. 30ms (or 30ft) is the point at which I would give up on trying to play rhythmic music well. That said 30ms latency is a lot of wiggle room where the speed of light is involved

People watch each other to synchronize. Problem with network latency is the visual latency isn't any better than aural latency, unlike on a stage.
