Myself 123 wrote: It's not fact as it's not been officially confirmed by Sega and like I said, there could be multiple reasons as to why the LSD has such a low rating. Sega officially made the SPD quantifications and they made the LSD get the SPD it does get, and if it was a mistake, it wouldn't always get the same number. It's plain and simple, the LSD gets such a low rating because Sonic' running speed makes light speed look low. You're just saying there's reasons to why it could have a low rating, when you're not providing a bit of evidence to your claim. Yuji Naka has also stated that Sonic's gameplay is light speed action through various stages, and Sonc himself stated that light speed is "small time" and "no challenge", and I take his word for it because 1. He's the fastest thing Alive 2. He knows his speed 3. His top speed is unknown, therefore he can still break previous limits 4. Sonic Rivals stated he's the fastest living being in the universe, therefore automatically faster than Shadow who goes warp speed. 5. Yes, he may be cocky and arrogant at times, but when it comes to speed, he's all about being serious, so no wonder he's call light speed slow to him.
