It was hypothetical.
Note this statement 'bout at light speed, our mass if infinite.

Exactly.

If two ships have inifinite mass, how can they recede from each other?
That is, if two things are everywhere, how can they change position?
Lastly, if light travels at the speed of light; and if, at the speed
of light, an object has infinite mass; then why isn't light omnipresent?

Just a question...
