I was curious, so did a quick web search, which claims that 300ms is the average reaction time and plenty of people run faster than that.

But I think the question was the other way: Why couldn't calc.exe launch in 300ms?

300 ms is way longer than they budgeted; separately, I was alive then and it's a ridiculous claim, like, it takes a general bias we all have towards seeing the past with rose-colored glasses and takes it farcically far.

Don't want to clutter too much, I'm already eating downvotes, so I'll link:
