I think the most straightforward illustration of Neuralink's demonstrated capabilities is Webgrid. Noland, the first participant who has had Neuralink for a while (though has reduced signal because of thread retractions) scored 9.51 BPS. Try it and see how well you do!

Well, I'd say permanent brain damage from scaring alone wouldn't quite be worth an extra 1 click per second...
What it's showing really is a very different problem; the mouse is a fair show and inefficient input method. While some use-cases, like 2d/2d panning, drawing, etc., benefit from a pointing device, most of the typical UI can best be done by a keyboard. I doubt any brain computer interface can achieve 100+ WPM on arbitrary inputs with a low error rate.
