I have told this story before. I recorded a nylon guitar Bossa rhythm track from BIAB and took it into the studio to use as a sort-of click track for the band. Worked great and the recording got good airplay on Spotify. However, when the engineer took my bpm=164 track, he discovered it was 163.9+, just a hair under 164. That was my first clue that timing could be a problem.

Add a ritard to that, only using integers for bpm, and it gets worse.
