Can kicking someone to the moon be used for LS?

We can’t get LS from punches and kicks.

Why not though? He physically kicked Saitama to the moon

In Boros's case he literally used an energy to amplify the impact of the kick.

Hyoptecially could it be used for LS? I mean he literally kicked someone to the moon that's definitely impressive

Because Striking Strength cannot automatically scale to Lifting Strength. This is due to how the body works. Case in point, a boxer who can produce a punch of 2500 newtons (254 kg) cannot lift a weight of 254 kilograms. While a powerlifter who lifts 254 kg, cannot punch with that level of strength.
It's impossible to be the best in both. A powerlifter is going to have a weaker punch than a boxer, and a boxer cannot lift the same as a powerlifter. And fiction takes this stuff to the extreme, with characters who can shatter entire buildings with their punches. Being unable or struggles to lift 1000 kilograms.
One is an instant/snap impact, while the other is a continuous show of force. Both of them involve using your muscles in very different ways. Just because a character can produce a certain level of force with their kick/punch. Doesn't mean they can lift that amount of weight.
There are exceptions to this, since fiction can do whatever it wants. But one would need to provide evidence to prove such a thing first.

But hypothetically if this feat was allowed for LS what would it be?

The minimun to send someone out of earth's atmosphere is mach 35, sending a 70 kg dude flying like that requires 840350 Newtons, which is Class 100+, going to the moon has no minimun and in saitama's case, idk how to deal with relativistic newton calculation

What would the high-end be?

This isn't LS. Kicking someone is textbook Striking Strength. However, I think that if he'd have thrown him rather than simply kicking (as throwing is a continous action that involves LS), this may could work

Well as i said, i have no idea what's the formula for pushing stuff at near lightspeeds
We already have the speed saitama wrnt i think, so we just need the formula
