Good point. You're probably right that in day-to-day use she'd still be the fastest. Unless she's already so fast that this new device wouldn't actually be able to improve on it?

But she might loose at least some of her advantage in serious combat. Assuming that the thought-controlled CAD sends the psion signals and activates the desired magical sequence at the same rate regardless of the user, the areas where speed can be played with would be the magician sending that initial signal and how quickly the usual CAD can process what the thought-controlled CAD is telling it to do. In a serious fight with both opponents using high-caliber CADs, her only room for manoeuvre would be in sending that initial command to the thought-controlled CAD and there's no saying she would be faster at that than her opponent.
