Why have we ruled out the possibility of finding something faster when we’ve only scratched the surface of space exploration and understanding?

Space can expand faster than light, particles with no mass can travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, slower if not a vacuum, and any particles with mass can not reach the speed of light.

If there was something in the standard model of physics that disobeyed that we’d know about it. If there are any other areas does not obey this speed restriction, e.g. dark matter, then it is also likely it would never have any application in the everyday matter that we CAN interact with.
