I didn't watch those youtube videos, but the text links either agree with the opinion that bluetooth is worse, or don't refute it.

That rtings graph shows that bluetooth is pretty clearly worse in the majority of cases from wired or wireless (which is distinct from bluetooth).

"Bluetooth" doesn't appear anywhere on that Reddit thread.

And from the second rtings:

> The mouse's connection type affects the click latency. Generally, wired mice have the lowest latency, and Bluetooth mice have the highest latency. A Bluetooth connection isn't recommended for gaming, but it's still good for office use, and most people won't notice any delay unless the latency is extremely high.




If you look at the graph again, not all of them are worse, which means it's obviously possible to make it on par or close to it. But regardless, the complaint was "too much latency for many games", which is not the same as "worse". And I don't think this amount of latency is too much for the vast majority of games.
