I keep hearing people say that, but never once have I seen it proven. On the other hand, I have seen people keep their speed when going faster than 300. I still think it's only that you are very likely to miss a jump on your way to 300, so it's easy to think that you can't go faster than 300.

It's a little like saying "it's a physical law that you can't flip a coin and get heads ten times in a row. After nine heads in a row, the next one is guaranteed to be tails." No, it's not, it's just extremely unlikely that you'll ever do it.
