From that point of view, you could say you're giving extraordinary credence to something that's purely theoretical.
As for the anomalous magnetic moment, it is yet again an unknown variable that another theory fills in(quantum electrodynamics) and only partially, much like the Bohr model of the atom worked in some cases and not others.
Again, I would point out the meaning of 'anomalous' in that it is an apt name. Why it occurs 'in all cases' hasn't been discovered.
Back to having a lightspeed limit, it is very simple. You CANNOT have an ABSOLUTE limit based on a RELATIVE measurement. SPEED is a relative measurement, therefore you cannot have a SPEED LIMIT. This means faster than light travel between the stars is possible.
This simple bit of logic is all the proof you need, and no slight of hand with the numbers is going to change it.
The only way you can have an absolute speed limit is to have ABSOLUTE speeds, and in order to do that you need a BASE MEASUREMENT...meaning Aether...which doesn't exist.
