No? It makes the opposite argument.

Then I definitely need to get some caffeine I guess *yawns*

Am I misreading this?

I'm not sure exactly how you're misreading it, but you are.

The Nothing isn't executing all the taps, some are blocked by the animation. It is responding visually and haptically to all of the taps, but some are blocked from doing any work by the animation.

You also said the Nothing was 6 taps but I'm not seeing anywhere the article says that. I believe it was 8 taps on both.

Both animate, but Nothing blocks further inputs while it's animating (even though the haptics still fire).

		Okay, that one is on me indeed. I’ve re-watched it at 0.5× and he does make 8 taps indeed. Apparently, only the first and the last are registered then. Sorry for the confusion!
