CW Flash speed question

[Golden_Void]

Wouldn't the Flash be far above FTL for there being a whole episode about him being at statue speed compared to a nuke, which would include light-speed radiation? His face would be peeling off like melted chocolate if the radiation was actually released.



This would scale to bum-tier speedsters like Jessie Quick, and Flash would give portions of his speed away to make regular characters like Cisco fast enough to statue the nuke as well. The only conflicting statement would be him not being able to evacuate a whole city before it went off. They had 9 minutes.

Yes, this feat puts them way above FTL. Actually somebody calculated this feat as MFTL+. And CW Flash and others are getting FTL, MFTL and MFTL+ speed upgrades.

I just believe the writers of this series were trying to apply real life laws to fiction that they literally lost the plot
Barry did all that only to need 40,000km in order to reach Mach TWENTY 4 seasons later
