> That's like speeding to the post office and expecting your letter to get to the recipient faster.

I mean, the post office is not a magic box. Actual people will take your letter somewhere, sometimes batching sends. So running to the post office might actually get your letter in an earlier batch, same as ordering on amazon or your online supermarket in the morning or in the evening might change the delivery time.

Pedantic, I know, but interesting example.
