Depends on what the definition of RT is...
RT should be something reliable for a human to use in realtime and not
in the RealMathematicalTime.
There is no human that can think in a microsecond.
if there is a human that can think in a microsecond it means he can
think\calc faster then a computer.

What do you think?
