There are sports that test the ability to develop strength, to play chess, to run fast, to run or swim for a long time. Do any competitions test other things though, like how accurately you can identify the frequency of a tone played on a speaker, or how accurately you can count to 100, or how accurately you could identify the temperature of randomly heated standardized warmer plates

Is this competition done at all? Is it niche or completely non-existent? Why isn't it widespread? It seems like something that would be a thing to compete about theoretically to expand the accurate of your mind during moments of focus at analyzing your senses, such as the passage of time or the temperature of an object. Does it have any practical uses though? Maybe not, so that's why it isn't trained. But is it a part of being human that we are missing?
