I'm not sure whether my own PP eartraining has also had an effect on the accuracy of my rhythm and tempo keeping, but I think to a certain extent the emphasis on listening has actually had a positive effect on it I'm sure.
Just the other day I realized how easy it is for me to tell the tempo differences between different recordings of the same piece. I'm speaking of the classical genre of course. I can always tell minute differences in tempo between different recordings. But, I'm by no means a human metronome! My piano teacher used to have to point out how I would emply rubato while playing Bach and that that was a no- no! I'm just so used to playing mostly romantic works that I have trouble keeping strict tempo. I always want to use rubato as a means for expression which I know is a kind of crutch that I should probably work on!
