Hi, so I recognize this may have been dealt with in the past, but is still bothering me as of late, and has lead to some pretty controversial stats to say the least, but why do we scale reaction speed to flight speed in Marvel Comics?
I mean, it just seems absurd, Han Solo doesn't have Massively FTL+ reactions for controlling the ships while they go for hyperdrive, hell even for a real world example, when you run as fast as you can, you never respond to every single hazard in your way.
And this is a major problem, as currently, many characters like Rogue (Marvel Comics) are being listed with near Speed of Light feats, despite characters like Spider-Man and Quicksilver keeping up with and even exceeding them, as well as resulting in severe contractions for characters' stats like Juggernaut (Marvel Comics).
So what I propose is that unless the flight requires many complex turns and maneuvering, it shouldn't ever be used to scale reaction speeds to, and for characters being scaled with such, I request the wiki members to assist in collecting feats and calculating them for, hopefully, more reliable statistics
