The current AA simulator operates within a single fast shutter

operate in the same time scale?

It's not the sensor actuator that's the issue; the AA simulator works
within a single exposure, whereas the superresolution needs separate
exposures to function. (You're moving a "green" pixel to a position
that was "red"; you need separate exposures to count the green photons
separately from the red. Otherwise all you're doing is blurring the
image, like the AA simulator does.) If you have to operate the
mechanical shutter, then it will take a substantial fraction of a
second. If they implement an electronic shutter, it could be faster.
But can it be fast enough that the SR system is pixel-perfect (to
superimpose the deliberate motion on top)?

What would be really nifty would be the option of getting all three or four low resolution raw files in addition to the superresolution final file, on the off chance the merge doesn't work, you'd still have unmerged files that would be usable.

But, that would complicate the UI, and worse yet be an admission that sometimes things go wrong.
