Ok, but what happens to everybody and everything between NYC and Nashville. There has to be some consequence to bending space.

Very bad things, which is why it’s only for interstellar space travel, where there’s nothing to be squished.

eh, flyover country...

seriously... you wouldn’t warp space anywhere near a planet or even within the solar system ideally.

You probably wouldn't bend occupied space like my New York/Nashville example. You'd bend empty space. I believe the way this warp drive works is it repeatedly bends space in front of it. If it bent half a mile of empty space at a time allowing it to pass through in just a few feet. You'd still have an incredible speed.

Well.... you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette.
