I think it is closer to the conventional view of current as the travel of electrons down a wire.
Current moves far faster than electrons. it is more similar to a wave in the ocean with the electrons being the water molecule.
As a result, and counterintuitively for most, the speed of electrons will give you a completely wrong answer for when a light will turn on after you flip a switch.
