Damn, things have gotten a lot faster than when Mrs. Schneider taught me
about the speed of light back at Wildwood School, Dist 28. Back then light
was only traveling at 186,000 miles per second, but that was in the mid
40's.
Not arguing with your basic premise, but your numbers are off by a factor
of about 1,000 or 30dB.
