A very interesting post, but how much is not known about the current laws of physics?
Only a few decades ago there were considered to be three states of matter, each with their own distinct characteristics. Now there are considered to be four (there may be a fifth) - again, each with their own distinct characteristics.
Only a few years ago it was considered physically impossible for bees to fly - fortunately no-one told the bees.
Recent theories suggest that one of the most fundamental constants (c, the speed of light in a vacuum) in physics may not actually be a constant after all.
Experiments with quantum mechanics have shown that the shortest distance between two points is not neccessarily a straight line. If you can find a way to scale up that experiment, then you don't have to bother about overcoming the problems associated with travelling at enormously high velocities.
Another of the fundamental laws (matter cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change forms) may be incorrect - observations at a quantum level have show matter popping in and out of existence.
You're right, we can't bypass the realities of physics. But just because we haven't figured out what those realities are yet , it doesn't mean someone (something?) else hasn't.
