To me it looks like a deers head looking towards the front deers rear end.

Anyone else see four deer?

Yes there are specific sports, shooting and archery are two of the obvious where a higher shutter speed capability is going to give you a greater opportunity to freeze the movement of the projectile more. The degree of 'freezing' is of course going to be determined by both shutter speed and object movement speed.
Capturing the bullet just in front of the barrel is a great example of the shot most would want to get. I read a very interesting article the other day that went into depth regarding the ' % chances' of getting this shot when you have the ability of 1/80,000s plus 120fps. With bullet speeds from various guns quoted it's surprising how far the bullet actually moves between consecutive frames.

Come on, you are again exaggerating.

It seemed logical since gwilliams6 brought up the use of 1/80000s for sporting events where the action can be fast. The A9 III is getting released in time for the Paris Olympics.
I've not seen any suggestion of someone using, or the need, of 1/80,000s for sports here.

I can't understand why you are referencing "sporting events" and giving examples with an aperture of f/16?
Don't sports photographers, generally aim for subject isolation, I know I do? They are also unlikely to have little interest or need in using shutter speeds is excess of 1/2500s which provide adequate stoppage of movement in the vast majority of cases, inside and outside.

Any hints...?
Yes.
Stop worrying about all not being in focus. My personal view taking your crab spider as an example is that I could not care less that the back leg is not in focus due to the shallow DoF. I can see three others that provide adequate detail, I know what that rear one would look like. You got the eyes spot on.

Who cares. ! We have been taking beautiful photos for decades without this feature.
Only relevant to those photographers who care more about the technical capabilities than actually taking photographs.

I just laugh when I read posts such as this.
You suggest it's "only relevant to those photographers who care more about the technical capabilities than actually taking photographs".
Perhaps you don't understand that it's the "technical capabilities" that allow some to actually take more and better photographs in certain circumstances. I'll give you an example, I photograph action at times in very low light and use flash to provide some fill. I have to use a shutter speed to freeze the action, 1/1200 to 1/1600s so have no choice but to use HSS unless I want double exposures. That has a downside, a significant reduction in power, and limits my range. This new technology allows for greater flash power, so greater range.

Is anyone having trouble launching photoshop? I get message that my graphics processor is not compatible?
I'm not, but that means nothing.
Has something changed, e.g. have you just loaded a major update?

And just what "home truths" are you referring to?
Let's see if you can come up with something intelligent for a change.

Yet another dumb statement from the idiot that makes illogical statements and classes others as "AI Freaks". Try using some intelligence instead of continuing to play the fool.

From your above responses they suggest that you are not too bright.

Are you suggesting that using AI is a craft? what rubbage!
Yes, when it's also used for pressing a button on a camera and producing a picture.
Craft definition - Oxford English Dictionary
"skill and experience, especially in relation to making objects; a job or activity that needs skill and experience, or something produced using skill and experience:"
If 'Craft' is going to be used as a descriptor for taking an image with a camera and producing a 'picture to be looked at', knowing how to press the right buttons using AI technology/methods to produce a picture to be looked at can similarly be classed as a craft.

I don't know what's going on and why the D5's MAX DR rating is so poor. Is that a price paid for it's superior low-light performance? I don't know -- not too interested to pursue it frankly.
One of the problems these days is that anything that has a lower measurable 'figure' of something within its specification is stated as "poor" far too often.

I checked the price of the Nikon Z8 in Thailand and it is $4288 in US dollars so it's more expensive than in the US.
You should look at the price of the Z8 in Fiji if you want a real shock
