I heard that the DeepMind Starcraft project intends to limit their AI's APM (actions per minute) down to something human-like.

I read that too but I hope they know the difference between APM and EPM. Pros spam APM that they could never do real actions on but their EPM is considerably lower (if the bots make actions based on pros APM they will have an insurmountable advantage).
Pros spam APM to keep warm, during battles or production macros they will frequently have a high EPM as well.
There's also accuracy.

Unlike a human, a bot will always "click" exactly where it intends to.
