I always thought that in Mode 3 the IS is spinning prior to pressing the shutter. It’s just not correcting the image in the viewfinder. At least I can hear it spinning prior to shooting on my R3.

You're right, I was thinking about IS lenses on EF mount, where the IS continued spinning for only a couple of seconds after shooting, and then required a half press to start it up again. But RF mount is different, the IS spins for very much longer. Maybe until sleep mode is engaged, I'd have to check.

However there is still a fraction of a second while the IS optical group is moved as necessary, and that could be an issue when working very fast.

A delay can also occur if servo AF (a3) Auto is selected rather than a particular case (1-4) because the camera has to decide which case it will apply before it shoots

see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFFKciYlxjQ&list=WL&index=3&t=3482s   at 45:44 and in particular 55:59 onwards
