And are human reaction times and perception times the same? I don't have any facts to prove it, but I struggle to believe that.

Sorry, thought I was editing a post before submitting, so what I wrote might’ve changed between your response and now.

Adding - it’s unlikely than reaction time = perception, particularly as reactions require signals to go to and from the nervous system.

I think so!

But my main point was comparing accelerations of this magnitude often means looking at imperceptible changes in absolute time resulting in accelerations that are 2-3x larger.

It was kind of my point about comparing these measurements rugby to the same measurements in F1.
