The performance in that video is nothing like the performance in the 500 WPM video. Accuracy is well under 100%, and he seems to be actually inputting random words - not just macroing a pre-defined phrase.

I don't mean to be rude, but did you even watch it? He explains the firmware deletes a word when it detects a chord which skews the accuracy.

That's the point the other commenters make. If that's what's happening, why does the 500wpm 100% accuracy?
