I can't read that article, but I suspect they're not including all the required foot movement there.

This study [1] shows ~2 seconds from gas lift to max brake force, when using right foot.

Eliminating the foot movement is why I left foot brake. I feel like I have some superpower with how fast I can react, compared to others. After all, we were taught to brake with our right foot out of tradition, not data!
