Do we not use it because we consider it hyperbole, I'm sure really.

How do we feel about the lariat being near lightspeed?

It's a hyperbole the canon manga contradicts this statement. For example sharingan sasuke reacted to a lariat from killer bee. Keep in mind this sasuke is probably around lightning speed or less based on zetsu stating lighting speed was unavoidable or too fast.
And the rikage was also slightly damaged from a LS transportation justu. Which would imply hes not LS

MHS+ Sasuke with his sub-rel reactions was able to aim dodge it due to Bee moving in a linear fashion.

Does it really contradict for Kisame to be able to dodge it? And before Jiraiya stomps Kisame.

We did use it at one point. It was remove due to people believing it was a hyperbole and lack of supporting feats.

Not only his profile pic, but his threads and comments. Always biased with Naruto, but he always accept some bullshits for Bleach. Just the average Naruto hater, he isn't the first one.

What do you mean lack of supporting feats? It isn't hype text, it's literally in the description of the move.

The Kanji used for it showed simile type "like/as". Like "he was like a bull", but instead it was "like the speed of light"
I'm surprised viz messed up on it. Usually they translate similes good.

Relativistic+ lariat ain't hyperbole

Contradicted by the riakage and tsunada being hurt by the speed of Light.
And lariat is not even his fastest move

Guys, linguistically it doesn't work, unfortunately.
It's like a statement saying "God-like speed", "big like a mountain", or "Bright like a star" or something along those lines. It's drawing a comparison between two things using a property they both share, in this case the property is speed, but it doesn't mean they are literally equivalent.
