I like to think the best we can hope for is that the speed of light limit is somehow naturally localized and the border to that localization is nearby enough for us to discover before we make ourselves extinct.
It's not too likely, since there would probably be solid evidence of it already in the light at can see.
Oh well.
This. And even if it wasn't, it would have to be far enough away to defeat the point. I think a faster speed of light in the milky way would be very obvious.
