Look at it this way: human ability to act is (for elite gamers) 300 actions per minute. That's 5fps. So with 30fps the AI could theoretically already have 1/6th the latency of the most-responsive human drivers

They are not actually responding at 300 actions per minute to changing input, a large percentage of those clicks are constant selections of team shortcuts.
This is even worse. Humans do not process 300 APM. They merely are limited physically to outputting 300 APM. You have no idea what the brain's capacity to process and analyze information that led to the output of 300 APM. If you think 5 FPS is the capacity of the brain's ability to process vision... well, don't make a driverless car, please.
We move and react slowly but we respond to info which comes at a much higher rate. I can notice the individual frames at 5 FPS. I know I'm not getting enough info.
