Yes, and what, exactly, causes the perception of "frames" in the wagon wheel illusion when you see it happen in real life?
If eyes refreshed literally instantly, you wouldn't lose track of the spokes of the wagon wheel, nor would you from a physical rotating grid like the one the image is emulating. I suspect a physical grid would preserve a similar effect, if it were rotating in almost-time with your eyes.
