I would think that proofing by playback, at least in most cases, would make
95% accuracy work pretty well, as opposed to reentering everything. Even if

No. The problem is that you might have to take 5 actions to fix each problem. If a triplet is misread as a string of 8th notes with an extra rest inserted, you're better off wiping out that mess and entering it clean. Likewise for ties misinterpreted as slurs and tempo markings misinterpreted as song verse. I think the break even point in time is about 98%, but the break even point in terms of my patience is about 99.5%

Sometimes SharpEye gets there, sometimes it doesn't. I haven't seen anything else even get closeto break even.
