Five years ago, Guinness left the following note on their video of Ben Lee's performance:

" It's worth noting that this is no longer a category that our records team monitor - the record has been rested. Our records managers are no longer able to monitor fastest musician records as it has become impossible to judge the quality of the renditions, even when slowed down. In terms of monitoring the number of musical notes, it is not clear if all notes have been played fully. "

Yeah, I think this is in large part due to TwoSetViolin, a classical music YouTuber duo who did a hilarious roast of this performance, as well as the whole concept of "fastest performance". See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvsvaCU6i1M for the original video.
