Nothing to do with the argument, but I believe there is an exception
that comes to exceeding the speed of light, and that is when the wave is
slowed in a medium to a speed less than c.


Sometimes EM waves travel at less than the speed of light
in a vacuum but they are still traveling at the speed
of light in the medium. VF*c is still the speed of light.
