I’ve found that this way of phrasing it helps people click: Speed of light is infinite*. What we call speed of light is the speed of reality.

* not actually infinite, because reality itself propagates at a finite speed

(I’d love to know if this is wrong - this is my best attempt to make sense of it from college classes)

It's always helped me to think of c as the speed of causality. It's the speed at which one thing causes another
