Pressing a key to trigger an action that you will then send additional input to is an entirely different sequence of events than whack-a-mole, where you are definitionally not triggering the events you need to respond to.

I'm not talking about latency (though I don't fully agree with your statement but I've covered that elsewhere). I'm talking about the GP's comparison of reactions vs musicians listening to unquantised pieces.

You simply cannot use musicians as proof that people have these superhuman reaction times.
