Iirc for the DB a train is considered on time when it's not later than 7 min on arrival. Which is a joke if you miss your following connection.
Having been on a delayed German train, my connection actually waited so that everyone on my train connecting to it could catch it...
That obviously can’t be done regularly without impacting the whole system though. Meaning either that’s why they’re always late everywhere, or that doesn’t happen very frequently
It can happen if delays are rare, yeah
Yeah, unfortunately they’re not rare with DB :(
