Then your "top session drummers" are useless. The ones I've worked with do tempo changes day in and day out--often live when working in musical theatre which is what I do most of. Have a listen to things like Les Mis or Cats or other popular shows. The changes you hear are done live 8 shows a week.
Or, if you're recording digitally at home, programming the click track for anyone/everyone to follow is simple.
Live musicians can see and play and adjust to falling rhytms on the fly, and can use body language to get tempo changes.
When you record your rhytm guitar, they can only hear what you recorded, they cant see you or adjust to you because you are playing to a click all along and then your not.
