Making this now so that it may be incorporated into the Speed Scaling for Part 2. If there's any useful feat to calc and all
Please do not bring up anything relating to Kirin here. I have an inkling it's going to be revised soon anyways.
So this
This blog is all well and good except for one small part
The bolded part seems like an arbitrary cut-off point.
The two examples cited even have implications of being speed based
Additionally, as long as an attack is electricity flying in the air and fulfils the criteria (which all raiton do) it should be lightning speed. According to DT:
Whether it's in the shape of a lightning bolt or not doesn't really matter.

Naruto Elements: Raiton

Obviously not. Only some raiton jutsus does have it, like a lightning shot, from Kakuzu or Mitsuki. Animal shaped lightning, like Kakashi Hatake's lightning and Darui's Black Panther are not lightning speed.

Lightning Beast Tracking Fang (Raiton: Raijuu Tsuiga)*
Ninjutsu, C-rank, Offensive, Supplementary, Close to mid range
User(s): Hatake Kakashi
A lightning beast that runs in hunting the enemy, to tear it with its deadly prey!!
The Lightning Release chakra of Raikiri materializes like a wolf and hunts its prey!! Even if the opponent is far away, a quick attack is still viable. Chasing with erratic, unpredictable movements is a characteristic of jutsu. When seeing jutsu for the first time, it is extremely difficult to avoid. In one-on-one combat, its effectiveness is tremendous. One of Kakashi’s pride, a fast attack Ninjutsu that guarantees victory.
Depending on the amount of chakra cast on it, the speed and range of the jutsu can be adjusted. If the enemy receives the blow directly, his movements are stopped…!!
Lightning Release: Black Panther (Raiton: Kuropansa)
Ninjutsu, B-rank, Offensive, Close to mid range
User(s): Darui
Heavy thunder gathers and charges at the enemy as a jet-black panther!!
By concentrating the myriad of lightning that’s released from the body, a black panther is created. Thunder resounds like a roar that rips the ears, attacking enemies one after another. The non-stop continuous attack is annihilating the enemy’s troups in the blink of an eye. That speed is certainly like a lightning flash…!!
Although it’s a rare Ninjutsu in the vast ninja world, those who can handle it are few, including Darui. The future of those caught by the movement stealing black lightning is two syllables: Defeat…!!
With water as an intermediary, the lightning is instantly spread out!! Making the best use of the electric current’s power by covering a range many times the normal range, a wide area of enemies can be shocked in an instant.
Additionally, as long as an attack is electricity flying in the air and fulfils the criteria (which all raiton do) it should be lightning speed. According to DT:
Electricity flowing through air is lightning.
Our standards are pretty clear that things don't need to be cloud-to-ground lightning to qualify (given, there are qualifiers that need to be fulfilled). Whether or not the word "lightning" is used to describe it doesn't really matter. We don't rank things by what they're called, but by what they are, and there is no real difference between electricity flowing through air called lightning and electricity flowing through air called something else.
Whether it's in the shape of a lightning bolt or not doesn't really matter.
