Why even have the video? The lips aren't in sync, the movement stutters. Its horrible to watch.

I can't even see how long the video in my firefox, and no jumping around. I would personally fire the people responsible for this right now, bad idea and bad implementation. But seems Zuckerberg is obsessed over this failure...

I think it was because it was a live transmission.
In person, there's very low latency thanks to all the engineering effort, as he mentioned. I don't understand why the capture was so incredibly terrible.

These devices weren't designed to stream video, end of story.
He actually mentioned there is still too much voice latency in person and he wants to fix it at the firmware level. Sad part is he's said the same thing about audio latency on Android for the past 5 or 6 Connect events going back to GearVR. The company must be completely dysfunctional. They hired a whole custom OS team and abandoned the project rather than fixing low-hanging fruit.
