You can delay a ping, but you can't ping faster. If you build a geometrically constrained network of servers pinging as low-latency as you can, then delaying a ping will change your position on the (x,y) plane, but you'll get pushed "up". https://imgur.com/yK4RkHg https://imgur.com/yK4RkHg Due to the reality of internet-routing, everything is going to be a little bit "up", since we can't actually measure the distance between two points via speed of light. Probably also useful for routing things.
