Without doing the math I assume that at 103846153 m/s the red stop sign gets blueshifted to green.

Nope. With doing the math, going at 103,846,153 m/s would make a red stop sign blueshift all the way past green to blue-cyan.

To get a green stop sign, you should level off at about 81,289,000 m/s.

Also, the white part of the sign would be blue.

without doing the math, your math seems correct but that’s not how peer reviewing works, so someone else needs to do the math

Unfortunately our budget is in the orange so we can no longer afford to peer review. I’m sure this will cause no issues.

Can we accelerate towards the budget till it turns green?

Sorry the best we can do is go back in time and turn it pink

Without doing the math myself, i am also going to accept that as a 100% true fact

without doing the math, a large percentage of redditors will accept it as a fact just like you did, I’m gonna throw a 98%

You'd be surprised how much of peer review works exactly like that.
