The "reliability" criteria are less well defined in the UC WCA than they are in PIP. First, they are defined in Case Law rather than primary legislation and they are not as well qualified, the quote you have included describes them as best as possible.
So. as an example; a reasonable length of time is not defined as twice the time that a healthy person might take but as a starting point it is quite good.
Remember, the WCA is intended to reflect activities you might need to do in a work environment, so again as an example; if it took you twice as long as a healthy worker to move the items on a till across the scanner then this may well be unacceptable.
It's a case of more is better, if you follow my logic.
One last point, unlike PIP the WCA defines pain using the phrase "significant discomfort", try and echo these phrases in your response as it draws you closer to the Descriptor. For your information; "severe discomfort" and "significant pain" should be considered as worse.
