Point 1: that seems to contradict, or rather be strongly incompatible 
with the often repeated claim that "clock speed" was a variable that 
could be tweaked or otherwise manipulated.

Point 2: All game engines I know, to the best of my understanding, are 
strongly based on at least two critically important clocks:

     1. The sound system's sample-rate clock which dictates what voltage 
to send to the speakers/headphones at each instant.

     2. The frame rate clock off of which the entire rendering engine 
hangs...

If any of these clocks (both mentioned above and not mentioned) are not 
perfectly synchronized with each other and the systems simulating the 
brain, which also has a number of local and global synchronization 
problems, then the subjective experience will suffer and the oft and 
emphatic claim that it will be "indistinguishable from reality!" will 
not hold.
