I agree, however one might wonder what happened in those hundred years where the maximum speed of Warp 5 and the cruising speed of Warp 6 100 years later with a top max speed of Warp 8. That is 512x the speed of the light compared to 125x the speed of the light.

Okay. So, in one century, the maximum speed doubled. What's wrong w/ that?

Then you got TNG which speed in about 8 times as fast. Where top speed was 9.6 and then it was 9.9+ a few years later.

Actually it makes sense, for the speed to only double. Because it took 30 years to get to Warp 5. However what makes no sense seeing that Vulcans already had ships going past Warp 6. Possibly fast than that. So the Vulcans did not share any of that technology with the humans, so they had to develop it on their own?
