This is because a musician automatically learns to compensate for latency 
by playing all notes in advance. All musicians do this, but usually having 
more to do with latency of the muscles and nerves. When the latency is 
changed, the musician has to retrain to a different compensation delay, 
and that's more tiresome than not having to retrain.
