In my mind I imagine warp to mean actually warp space not fly through space, the theoretical Alcubierre drive may warp space. Space is shrunk in front of the Alcubierre spacecraft and expanded behind it.

The spacecraft doesn't actually move through space it pulls the space where it needs to go towards the spacecraft and pushes away the space behind it.

I'm no rocket surgeon so don't quote me.
