The feeling of progress literally affects how our brains perceive time. We experience it passing more quickly when we are moving and feel like we are progressing. To our brains and our perception of time, it very much is the same as actual progress.
Yes and the whole point of the post is about pursuing perfect rationality which means only caring about facts and logic not perception.
True rationality and logic would not dismiss perception. Time is literally relative. How the brain perceives the passage of time and the factors that affect it is a fact of biology. If you perceive time as passing more slowly when you aren't moving, then being forced to stand still will literally make it take longer for you from your frame of reference.
Absolutely… the subjective experience is an objective fact.
