Agreed. Minato, whether he casually threw it or not, proved that he could move his arm faster than A could move his. Then he proved he could move his entire body faster when he attempted to strike him. If you look at the distance between A and Minato's kunai when he is gripping it, it's a few inches. If A was faster or even as fast, he should have been able to completely avoid it by just running forward. If A was faster or as fast, he would be able to move a few inches forward just like Minato's strike. The distance between them would have not changed since they'd be at the same speed and moving in the same direction, unless he was faster which means A would increasingly gain distance. But that didn't happen. A couldn't do anything. He didn't maintain or gain distance. Which means he isn't even as fast as Minato. By closing the gap between A who was already top speed and in motion, Minato proved who was the fastest man alive.
