Currently DCAU Flash is listed at Relativistic for his planet-running feat. Why is this so when he has a better feat?
In Justice League Season 2 Episode 14 Flash is able to run from Earth's orbit to a location very near the sun in a little less than 7 minutes and 30 seconds. Since light takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds to get from the Sun the Earth, would that not put Flash at FTL speeds?
Some may argue that Flash was not running on his own, but was being assisted by Green Lantern, yet I do not see how this is possible, as the whole point of it was that the Flash is the fastest. Honestly GL could have just used his ring to deliver the wormhole generator in the first place (since he was making the bridge Flash was using), but the plot wanted to show Flash's speed. Flash even describes the feat as a "cosmic treadmill"; a treadmill does not boost the speed of the runner, but is there a way that GL was steroiding his movement in some way?
So what do you think of this? Would this let Flash qualify for FTL speeds for his DCAU profile or does Green Lantern's interference mean this is not usable?
