There seem to be two different kinds of tech journalist, the kind that understands Apple, and, by extension, how hard certain things are to do, and the kind that doesn't. The latter will make statements like "But besides this latency improvement, Apple's Pencil itself doesn’t actually offer any noticeable drawing features that FiftyThree’s Pencil doesn’t." Such a ridiculous statement. Zero pen latency is something nobody else in the history of general purpose tablet computers has ever been able to accomplish. Apple managed to do it. It's a staggeringly hard thing to do, but just like everything else Apple accomplishes, they make it look so easy that journalists are all like, "so what?" You can make fun of Ive's breathless self-pimping all you want, but at the end of the day, Apple does the things nobody else has the stones to even try.
