All of what you say can literally be put down in a couple of words.
This site practices death of the author a lot. What the author tries to showcase and what we actually accept as truth from events that happen in said show are vastly different things many times.
But just to be full clear I'll say more, Ainz or anyone he scales to hasn't shown anything beyond the speed we give him now, Aqua scales to evading an attack that looks like a ray of light and we have no reason at all to think it isn't one, so it's going at SoL, so she has to be FTL.
Either make a CRT if you don't agree with this, or don't argue that Acqua is slower than Ainz because of subjective perceptions you have from reading the series.
Not to mention you went into a bunch of head canon NFL about how Ainz works. No, he doesn't "lose" his chance to cause instant death. That's what the spell does, that's what we are told, nothing at all disproves this and we have no reason to assume it works like you say. So we don't do that, simple as that.
That never happened. She did not dodge his death ray because she deflected it after hearing him shout [Vanir-style Death Ray] in volume 8 chapter 1, she heard his attack, casted something to deflect it then counter-attacked with purification magic. Citation needed or please don't reply.
Ainz casting speed feat is at-least something quotable if you've read volume 3 chapter 5 of Overlord or even watched season 1 episode 12 then you should have seen true FTL instant casting, she sneakily casted teleportation and before she even materialised Ainz had already cast ÒÇîDelay TeleportationÒÇìand the moment she materialised her field of vision was filled with ÒÇîDrifting Master MineÒÇì
If you want to mention his physical speeds then shalltear is massively hyper-sonic, Brain's ultimate attack is faster than sound, his 'great' achievement is to swing so fast that the blade has not a single drop of blood on it, of-course the author used the words 'lightning-strike' or "There was a single word to describe the speed of this movement — lightning". Also how I know its faster than sound:

To shalltear this was turtle speed. Also another speed feat by Shalltear, ÒÇîMagic ArrowsÒÇìmade up entirely of light, she dodged and flew away before the light turned 90 degrees, chased her down and hit her. Volume 3 chapter 5.
Moving on to Aqua who casts at human speeds, proof? Every instance, not once was there ever a moment an inhabitant of that world was unable to hear her casting. Volume 9 she could not attack fast enough or cast fast enough to stop Wolbach from teleportation, this was the #1 enemy that gave them the biggest headache because of their ability to use explosion magic and have enough mana to teleport away. Something Aqua was powerless to stop either through casting or physical speed.
Also I've stated how Ainz works based upon his abilities, anyone outside of his universe would not have Yggdrasil levels, if you've read Overlord you should know some of his spells depend on the other person's level/equipment. The new world inhabitants only have yggdrasil levels because of an incident that occurred 500 years ago that warped the world's magic, there are being so foreign to the Yggdrasil system that they are categorised as 'unknown' on their character sheet which should show their classes as well as race, Hamsuke is an example of a foreign being.

PS. Also I hope you didn't mean my previous statement of Ainz being able to outdo Aqua in her own field as some head-cannon, it's not all her abilities. Because it's not, It's common knowledge he can resurrect without a body and volume 13 he planned to resurrect people he's never met. While Aqua cannot. Aqua can cast a flood class water spell but Ainz has a creation spell to change terrains, freezing, desert, water, fire, it's up to him and in Volume 4 he froze the Great Lake and his subordinates couldn't immediately confirm the extent he froze the lake that has width of approximately twenty kilometres and has the shape of an inverted calabash or ladle.
