You're right I overestimated how fast we talk!

Some rules of thumb I use for estimating this kind of stuff

100wpm: Max typing speed

200wpm: Max speaking speed

300wpm: Max listening speed, max reading speed with subvocalisation

900wpm: Max reading speed without subvocalisation

Doin napkin math, this model should be hitting 900wpm
