In the past refs only had to enter a foul or maybe a score, but the teams weren't stopped from entering game pieces until after the panel and linked field systems responded.

To be totally honest, I didn't use a 2012 or 2013 tablet, so I have no idea. I agree with your comment that previous games didn't rely on the responsiveness of the tablet. But I know that the 2011 tablets were about 1 second latency between your touch and the tube changing on the tablet screen.
