I wouldn't necessarily say it's picado speed. It is quite complicated with flamenco. I mean Moraito for instance wasn't particularly famous for his picado speed, but just perfect aire and compas, powerful playing, getting the max out of each single note. I also think accompanying singers, dancers is an art in itself and probably lots of "advanced" players who only focused on solo guitar and even having great technique and compas, might be lost if they haven't focused on accompaniment and practiced that with singers. I have seen so called "beginners" who focused on fundamentals and have those right (good compas, etc.) with inferior speed and technique compared to some advanced players, but some players with advanced and fast technique who lack compas, the right aire and feel etc. Basically unbalanced progress. And I think "years" actually DO matter. Even if some of those years were not that productive. The more you listen to flamenco, the more you "get" it imo. If those years were used to practice and play, the better the years.
