Lent the card to someone yesterday to test it out. The card does work
on the gates, but is reported as noticeably slower-acting than an
Oyster.

All contactless cards are slightly (but noticeably) slower-acting than
an Oyster.

I would have expected it to be all of them, but am slightly surprised
how rarely it's mentioned. And I forgot to mention it when handing over
the card.
