Just to be clear ..
So you want to say that I'm making mistake because I'm assuming that
speed/performance matters?
No, that's clearly not what I wrote. Try again.
Could you please confirm that is is what you are thinking reading what

What I wrote was clear. Focus on the words "the only one that matters"
and "other considerations are irrelevant".
