iOS allows me to change the touch and hold delay in some environments, like Assistive Touch long press (it allows you to set way down to 0.2 second), Touch Accommodations etc.

However, there are some instances where I can't find an option to reduce the long press delay, like in Safari. Long pressing a link takes around 1.5 to 2 seconds, and that's an eternity for me. On the other hand, the 0.2 second of Assistive Touch long press is very comfortable to me.

So, is there any way to change that behavior system-wide, or at least in web browsers?

I know iOS 13 beta 4 implemented a "fast" and "slow" touch duration inside the new 3D & Haptic Touch menu. But, from what I've seen in many YouTube videos, the "fast" option is the default one, and it corresponds to the same delay of iOS 12.
