I thought my question was fairly reasonable, but let me rephrase. The lattice, what type of confirmation time is possible? I guess it doesn't have blocks, so there will be something else? How does your lattice achieve consensus? I don't think these questions are covered, least in much detail yet.

Confirmation times depend on a distance inside lattice. Thus aren't one number we could just paste here. Besides, as mentioned before - it requires some more in-house and live tests to determine real ranges.
As to structure - it consists of spatially distributed nodes playing different roles. Some act similarily to blocks - they store data (txs, logic, just data). Others are a skeleton of lattice providing means to retain state.
As to consensus - it's detached from external actors and managed via authorities (small programs) "living" in lattice. They must be processed ofc, but processing yields no vector to manipulate them. More will come with WP.
