"Initially invented", yes, but it can be applied to other situations. If
it 
takes two minutes for Blue admiral to get sensor reports, decide what's 
going on, give orders, and his ships execute them, then of course it's
not 
important if Red takes two minutes plus a tenth of a second. But it
would be 
important if Red takes three minutes. Same deal if Blue battalion takes 
three hours and Red takes four.
