Isn’t the speed of light just a more intuitive way to say the speed of causality? Going faster than that would be exposing an effect before the cause.


It might be that that is what relativity theory implies. Then again, it might not. We don't know and that is what Hossenfelder is pointing out. We just have some formulas that seem to fit our observations mostly on large scales. We know they don't fit on quantum scales.
