And you have poor reading comprehension. Which is probably why you tend to put your foot in your mouth a lot. The basic debate and point of what I posted was the admissibility of the "feat" and its non-usability as a "battle feat". Which is a fact. It is not a "combat feat".
It's funny that you use "make stuff up" and "reaching" when that's exactly what you want to do (as below).
FYI, I "didn't make stuff up" with Superman using different powers. I made a comment about how we don't know IF HE DID use any of his other powers as it would make sense for superspeed to not be sufficient for him to be able to read and memorize what he did.
Again, as one of the person's known as the guiltiest in "making stuff up" and "reaching", you might wanna tone down your accusations to not make yourself sound too stupid.

You are copping out by implying that since the feat can't be quantified then it is unusable for combat speed. In debating we are not lawyers, arguing the letter of the law, but rather we argue what makes sense in the realm of suspension of disbelief. It makes 100% sense to throw a punch within the time frame of reading a whole page and then turning the page.
This entire line of thought makes no sense. In any kind of debating environment, we use as much evidence and proof as we have in order to arrive at reasonable conclusions snf to prove our assertions. You're saying that if a lot of the variables that would allow us to quantify a "feat" is missing, we should just go ahead and make things up in our head according to how we see the "feat" because of "suspension of disbelief". And then you accuse ME of "making things up"? SMFH.
And I'm not saying that this evidence is unusable. I'm saying that it cannot be the primary platform for making an speed argument. More like corroborative evidence if primary evidence exists that prove that he fights at this speeds due to its unquantifiable nature and the fact that it is not a "battle feat".
If you think he's untouchable by the Hulk, that's fine. Post actual "battle feats".
Many characters have been portrayed not using their full range/capacity of their abilities in comics. What you're suggesting is that we take the max level capacity of their powers (even the ones they haven't used in combat) and extrapolate the best possible interpretation of said "feat" and ignore actual in-combat "feats" that said characters have actually demonstrated in combat.
Which will make characters like Surfer godlike.

If it takes 2 tons of force to lift a car then arguing whether a feat shows 100tons of force or more, when we know it is much over 2 tons, is irrelevant.
Stop posting assumptions and presenting them as fact. Again, if you think he is, then post evidence, don't stop reaching in trying to come up with a reason to include a "feat" that we can neither measure properly nor can determine if it is applicable in a combat scenario.
