Vagrant Lustoid 2

Scientists treat inconclusive findings as facts because they will never, ever have 100% confirmation of any "fact". There's always the miniscule scientific possibility of it being disproven somewhere, but since that is such a miniscule possibility for many things, it's simply not worth arguing for. Once again: the unknown can only be argued using the known.

If it happened to be stated in the manga, I would accept it, and that'd be taht. but since it's not, I can only rely on what we know about our own world in application to theirs, and also on the fact that your argument contains logical fallacies that have nothing to do with the math. Those logical fallacies transcend maths and whether something is fictional or not, because the same logical systems apply everywhere.

I accept that mathematically it becomes possible, but I do not accept that that makes the theory itself possible thanks to biological and more importantly logical impossibilities within your argument.

For a theory to be possible, it can't have even one impossible factor in it, because impossibility is an overriding master status. Which means your theory needs to be at least mathematically, biologically and logically possible to actually be considered possible.

To clarify, I give no doublespeak. Your statement is: Gotenks may or may not be able to surpass lightspeed. This is a statement that is obviously always going to be true, since it encompasses both aspects of a situation that only has 2 options. This is why it is both impossible and possible at the same time. In fact, it is impossible but certain at the same time. It's impossible for you to take both parts of the statement as seperate parts and for them both to be true, but the statement as a whole is certain to be true. That's why your argument lacks falsifiability and is logically invalid and as such isn't actually a possibility. I cannot put it any plainer than that.

Since we know at least one of those factors is currently deemed as impossible, the theory is also currently impossible. Kudos on the maths, but they're only a part of a bigger whole.
