I read through several profiles for Punishing Gray Raven and found the justifications for the immeasurable speed of multiple characters to be even worse than the idea than Low 1-A Tribbie. I can't find a CRT that had Immeasurable speed accepted so I assume it was there when the profiles were created.
Let's start with the verse's heaviest hitter, Ishmael:
First off, the scan never said that Ishamel or any higher-dimensional being is beyond the concept of linear time. What it actually says is time in lower-dimensions is like a physical object in the perspective of higher-dimensional beings. As for time being a book whatsoever, its rather talking about that higher-dimensional beings sees lower-dimensional beings as a book that can be read, not because the concept of time is a book itself. Higher-dimensions by default still have a time-axis, unless if the so-called "higher-dimensions" are 1-A layers which obviously is not the case here.
Next up, Lee:
The scan absolutely does not say he is unbound by linear time. The scan actually says Lee traveled through the space-time continuum but instead arrived to an alternate dimension of Chaos. This is not immeasurable speed, but Dimensional Travel. Even if Lee were to travel through space-times through sheer speed, it'll still not be immeasurable speed as travelling through space-time =/= moving beyond linear time.
Now moving onto our dear female central protagonist, Lucia:
Probably the worst one out of the rest. There was literally a portal present. There was a goddamn portal lmao
Well, the portal did lead to a dimension that allowed them to travel back through time, but that is a property of the realm, not the character's sheer speed itself.
Vonnegut:
Same scan as Lucia's. They travelled back in time through a portal.
Cradle:
Same scan as Lucia's. They travelled back in time through a portal.
The Hetero Tower:
This one is at least debatable. A part of the description says that the past and present takes tangible forms but that can mean anything and even be interpreted as flowery language, not ncessarily that time is treated as a spatial dimension. Another description says it reaches beyond the confines of a space-time continuum without mentioning higher-dimensions and breaking free of confines of the timeline whatsoever, which could be immeasurable speed but I'll let the mods decide on this. I propose that The Hetero Tower should has its speed rating changed to possibly Immeasurable with its description altered a bit.
@Arkenis mentioned Alternate Future Display for The Hetero Tower based on the scans.
This is about the end of my OP for now. All of the characters thats been mentioned will have their immeasurable speed removed with it downgraded back to sub-relativistic and The Hetero Tower changing to a possibly immeasurable speed rating.

Speed: Immeasurable (Is beyond the concept of linear time, and sees time as a book that can be read from any page and can keep up with Lee Hyperreal) | At least Immeasurable

Next up, Lee:
Immeasurable (Exists unbound by linear time, and can freely travel across the spacetime continuum) | At least Immeasurable
The scan absolutely does not say he is unbound by linear time. The scan actually says Lee traveled through the space-time continuum but instead arrived to an alternate dimension of Chaos. This is not immeasurable speed, but Dimensional Travel. Even if Lee were to travel through space-times through sheer speed, it'll still not be immeasurable speed as travelling through space-time =/= moving beyond linear time.
Now moving onto our dear female central protagonist, Lucia:
Immeasurable (Was shown flying back and forward in time in her fight with Vonnegut)
Probably the worst one out of the rest. There was literally a portal present. There was a goddamn portal lmao
Vonnegut:
Speed: Immeasurable (Was shown flying back and forward in time in his fight with Lucia)
Same scan as Lucia's. They travelled back in time through a portal.
Cradle:
Immeasurable (Comparable to Vonnegut who was shown flying backwards and forward in time in his fight with Lucia)
Same scan as Lucia's. They travelled back in time through a portal.
The Hetero Tower:
Speed: Immeasurable (The Tower manifests the spacetime continuum and is unbound by linear time) | At least Immeasurable | Unknown
