It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I can't tell how fast it is, is there a comparison of someone using this vs. a regular swimmer?
The real comparison will be this thing vs a set of basic swim flippers.
I don't really have a good gauge of how fast you can typically go with swim slippers though. Comparing to a person swimming without any aides would be much more useful for getting an idea of what "superhuman speed" means.
I'd still go with the flippers. The sacrifice to articulation seems like a deal breaker.
