Its funny that human perception seems to be anecdotally tied to double digit milliseconds when if you ask any drummer or guitar player about input latency they'll tell you that the absolute maximum round trip latency to be able to enjoy playing the instrument is in the range of 5ms.
Only once latency dips under 5ms does it start feeling "right". Personally, I groan when I have to use anything over 3ms with my guitar as the second I hit high tempos the latency is unbearable.
Below 3ms it gets very hard to say that you can feel a difference.16th notes at 250bpm with 5ms latency has you approaching 10% of the note separation time. It's 100% perceivable.
It's kind of apples to oranges. Smoothness or variance is noticeable above discrete human 'limits'. For a variety of reasons.
With music you have multiple types of feedback.
