All these latencies are well below 50ms worst-case. For me, those are perfectly fine for typing. While it is obvious that high latencies have an adverse affect on typing, there certainly is a "good enough" threshold. I find it very hard to believe that you'd be able to see any difference in typing with 2ms and 20ms latency. The article even implies that terminals with higher latency might cause RSI, which is damn close to fearmongering. The article also claims that the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines require 10ms latency, while clicking that link shows "0.1s", which is much more reasonable. And just to be clear: I'm strictly talking about typing. I do not question that in other areas latencies have to be much lower than 50ms (like mouse movement, music making, etc.).
