As I understand it, it takes a bit of anger to get electromagnetism to wiggle that fast over copper. Imperfect transistors using their full operational envelope to control a sort of chaotic thing? Fields and stuff.

can confirm. anger causes loud fast communication that can be heard over background noise. I've heard anger using light-based signalling like sign language might be more efficient.

They get hot using fiber as well.

is thunderbolt not copper?

It doesn't get as long! Long copper.
