Indeed, if you assess fatigue ever ten seconds, you'll get people
pausing at least after every nine seconds. Possibly earlier, so that
their opponent can't press them effectively.

There really needs to be a better reason to hang back and wait for
your opponent.

Getting people to reveal actions all simultaneously would probably
encourage people with decent Speed to Wait more frequently, I think.
