Flies have super fast neurons for responding to light. They probably also have hairs on their bodies to detect air pressure which gives them plenty of time. Flying things consume a lot of energy, so the reaction processing is no big deal. But plants are lazy. They don’t inhale oxygen and only use photosynthesis, so they have limited energy. By moving slowly, they use a lot of energy for a plant, but much less than moving fast. It’s not the speed, but the mechanis. Also the slow reaction helps prevent the fly from realizing. But the plant does not have enough energy to move faster, I’m guessing
