Hit's time-stop acts extremely weirdly, moreso when you consider this episode.
By that I mean, if Goku can some predict ahead and block/counter what hit does by 0.1 seconds, then Hit shouldn't be capable of going toe-to-toe with SSJB Goku without the time-stop at all.
But there was a point he was doing just that, he wasn't using time-stop, but he was able to go toe-to-toe with Goku for countless blows and even blocked a punch, and Goku asked why aren't you using your time-stop during that exchange.
And then he tried, Goku was frozen, but as soon as the blow as about to land, Hit got countered. Hit said he would just try to be more unpredictable with his 0.1 second time-leap, but Goku said its hard to change your natural reaction in such a "short time".
Maybe Hit's time-stop not only stops everything else, maybe it slows his natural speed down why he is using it. It even looked like he was going in slow motion to punch goku while goku was frozen.
That would at least explain why 0.1 seconds seems like a short amount of time to him, as opposed to a very, very long time like it should, because maybe in exchange for a time-stop all around, he himself gets slowed down.
If that's the weakness of the technique, it would also explain why Goku is able to block/counter at the last moment just as a 0.1 seconds is ending, meaning Hit still needs a moment to get back up to his native-speed once the time-stop is no longer in effect.
Hopefully that makes sense.
