I never said Kakashi never said it was fast. I said that is only a possibility that he said it was fast because it can be interpreted differently. You say he meant speed. I say he could of meant Time to kill, thrusting speed, etc. I also pointed out that it was shown not to be fast in a few instances. Sasuke standstill point kills all your arguments alone. You can't use a technique standstill with that much ease if the technique pulls you faster than your eyes can handle without Sharingan. Also, how is a technique fast if you are already running at your target, get within 5 feet of that target, and only have to just hit the target, but they who waited to even move a centimeter until you got within five feet, yell and slash after yelling which almost kills the user of Chidori. Minato with ease, grabs the user of Chidori and saves him before anyone can react. The fact he waited until Kakashi got within five feet, yelled, then slashed, showcases a lack of efficient speed to get the job done.

You also have no evidence to support your thruster claim that Chidori pulls it's target. Like you made that completely up. If Chidori did all these things you say it does which is so much important information, why hasn't Kishimoto stated any of it directly? Why did he leave all this information out in the Databook. He seemed to do a pretty good job explaining everything else even going so far as to fix false statements he previously said, but when it comes to a signature technique of two main characters, he neglects it?

If Chidori is such a speed enhancer why is there no speed difference. Sasuke and Naruto in VOTE 1, were near even at their maximum. There was no gap in speed between the two, they kept up with each other. When we see the techniques clash, Sasuke and Naruto both moved the same distance before clashing. Which means Sasuke didn't get a boost of speed at all.

In every single case, Chidori is seen with ease and reacted to when it comes to none fodder.

The mere fact Naruto could even react to Sasuke's Chidori in a burnt out state, where as Sasuke was refueled by Kurama's Chakra, also kills your theory.
