Comparable physics, different route to the same effect. It has to do with air compression, speed of sound, etc, shielding the control surfaces and the shape of that effect around the plane as you increase speed. IDK if it has a name. Any youtube explanation of supersonic flight should cover it.
Most higher speed subsonic aircraft recycle the design principals from supersonic aircraft to alleviate the problem. You could on paper dive a Learjet or 747 or other "designed for the higher end of subsonic" aircraft to Mach 2 and retain control authority if you wanted and if the airframe could take it.
