Memorization, in Taiichi's case, helps achieve greater speed - you can hear 2 or 3 sylabe card, but you can react on 1st one - because you know that other cards with such sylabe have been read. You can also quickly calculate probability of card with XYZ sylabe being read and focus on the one with highest probability.

The exception is perhaps knowing which long syllable cards are read such that the remaining ones can become 1 or 2 syllables effectively.

Yep, it's the only advantage he gets, which is then wiped away anyway against Arata who will take anything that could possibly be read. The "no fault" thing was stressed previously though, yet it all seems to be for nothing since no one commits faults - or fears committing faults.

Impersonating would do nothing, lol.

Correction, it would be detrimental.
