Looking at it from a slightly different perspective, at a runway-constrained airport like Heathrow for example, the declared departure rate (i.e. take-offs achievable per hour) contains an implicit factor for what is termed, rather misleadingly, "pilot reaction time" between the take-off clearance being issued and the start of roll.

I don't know what value is used, but somebody probably will.
