Is the value of the speed of light in empty space the effect of the structure of space? If gluon field was less dense would light go faster?

>> No.8765523

Why the value of the speed of light is that much and not different?

Whatever it is, it has an analog of density and compressibility that defines the speed of light.

[math]
\displaystyle
c = \frac{1}
{ \sqrt{ \varepsilon_0
\mu_0
}
}

Squishy thing mushes light into itself when it contracts or out of itself when it expands.
