> Why is the input latency so bad on the display? The touch/draw visibly lags behind by 500ms or more, is that an issue with the software or with the hardware?

One likely factor: the video we're watching is from 2016. I think input latency has gotten more attention (optimization effort) since then.

No, it definitely has not gotten better based on what I’ve watched this midterm cycle.

I'm speaking about devices in general. Haven't been getting my election coverage in video form, so I'll your word this board hasn't improved. They may have just stopped investing in it rather than take advantage of hardware and tooling improvements since 2016...
