I'm sure they would be sensitive to bad timing. But that's not
the question. Would they be able to identify the recordings listed
above ? Until you try it you won't know, and your claim that 2 ms
of jitter 'destroys the groove' is pure conjecture.

It's not about what 'good music' is. The question is if midi jitter
of 2 ms does degrade the quality of a rendering.
