So, this blog seems to be the main support for the current speed ratings, based off the idea that Ghost Rays are light. Something I disagree with.
"Season 2 episode 19 "Double Cross My Heart". In this episode, Danny fires a ball of ectoplasm that explodes into an intense bright light."
A "fireball that explodes" doesn't line up with the requirement of traveling in a straight line.
And a explotion is a big contradiction for something to be considered light-speed, because light is not something that can be a shockwave that push things afar via pressure like your every day explotion.
Exploding into bright light is not proof either, there are several things that emit light; plasma, fluorescent substances, heated metals, and you know, several explotions.
"Ghost energy is intangible by default but can make their attack physical.
Season 1 episode 4 titled "Attack of the Killer Garage Sale". In this episode, the energy blasts from Technus phases through a wall.
Season 3 episode 9 titled "Frightmare". In this episode, Danny fires a ghost ray that phases through the floor."
None of this is evidence.
Light is not intangible in the same way as someone like Vision goes intangible, you can block the light of a flashlight with your hand and it won't pass through it. Light can go through either transparent or really thin materials, but it doesn't move between walls or floors. This is not proof but just the ghost's intangible abilities.
"A Ghost Ray has never changed in speed."
Some of the videos directly show that ghost rays move at different speeds, the beam from Technus took seconds to cover a room, while the one that blasted Nocturn covered a greater distance in less time (Not only that but the beams pushed the characters, which is not part of light).
"Season 2 episode 7 titled "Fenton Menace". In this episode, Danny sees a mirror and fires his Ghost Ray, which reflects off of it."
The only good supporting thing is this, and maybe Butch's words to an small extend, but the rest of the reasons can be summarized as "It produces light therefor is light-speed"
Which as I stated before, being a source of light doesn't equal being of said speed.
I'm not any expert of the verse, my main complain are several justifications of the blog, so there might be better, more accurate showcases of SoL that can be added as a replacement, but until then there is more proof against light-speed ghost rays than with it.
