I could’ve sworn I saw a video about this and the gist is that it’s called “speed of push” and is essentially the speed of sound. When you push something, you’re compressing the molecules of it and that will travel like a wave through it. Light travels faster than that wave.
I’m probably explaining wrong because it’s something I’m half remembering from a video I could’ve seen over a decade ago, but that’s the quick explanation.
