This reads to me as if you're saying C is in a class of its own. That may not be what you meant! But it's what I understood. C is the fastest language, period, and others may approach its speed (which is the ... part) but cannot surpass it. This is different than something like "C, Rust, Zig, and Odin are roughly the fastest languages."
Anyway, it's all good, we understand each other now. Sorry for appearing overly pedantic.
