Not always will the timer be the best source of information due to other things happening at the table.
Nah, if they tell me 10 seconds didn't elapse that should have when were at the 3 minute mark; that's good enough for me. I'm going to be far more careful, however, under 10 seconds. If I or my partner don't have direct personal information, I'm not making a change.

Frankly, this has little to nothing to do with my perception of the competence of the timer.
