Hypersonic already means faster than sound, so it's not much of a point in her favour (and creating lightning is different than perceiving or predicting something coming at you at a speed faster than sound).

Also, fights in ToAru, at least where scientific elements are involved, tend to be as realistic as possible in what natural effects the powers create (like Styil and Touma's fight).
