	Yeah, it's part of the problem, but that would normally only give you ~60 - 100 ms lag (at least if you're on a decent connection, close-ish to the server). But we're experiencing another bug where WebTransport doesn't get a chance to send/receive data when the framerate is < 60fps (because the thread is starved), which makes it much worse than that. We're aware of it and working on it. This is the core issue: https://github.com/w3c/webtransport/issues/543

60 ms is already borderline even for conscious discernment of transactional state changes.

For self locomotion feedback that is a huge value. And for proprioceptive signals like mouse input it is absolutely astronomical.

Oh yeah, absolutely agree, we're not stopping at 60 ms. Client side prediction is planned (see Philpax answer https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37767359 and our netcode roadmap: https://github.com/AmbientRun/Ambient/issues/671).

This is IMO a pretty good reference example for making a framework-based solution that can be reused by non-coders:
