Is that because of the time humans take to move ?

This brings me to a question: Human players get twice the amount of
reading time by reading out different positions on the board while the
opponent plays.

Is anybody's Go program doing this ? Given that most go programs move
almost instantly and humans take quite a long time that should be a
valuable approach. Every time I play many faces, it spends about 3
minutes (don't quote me) per game when I spend 30.

So many faces could spend ten times the amount of time reading and still
only use up 3 minutes of playing time.

Of course how to use that time is the problem.. but it might be possible
to build up caches to use later on ?
