The 128 rule is about events and aircraft spawning (see Steves post above).
Whilst developing and testing the game engine over a number of years (and I'm talking about a few dozen testers and thousands of man hours) it was found that aircraft in particular would spawn only on occasion if at all.
As for reaction time, x128 would make it impossible for the player to react quick enough, hence the game engine by default drops to x8 which IMHO is still unrealistic.
Better to use Commander and manually set the tc to x1
