Jesus you are as dumb as a rockyou are really pretending to know.
Speed is the result of thrust versus drag, higher drag more thrust needed to be applied to the mass.
The inlet only helps in adapting the air speed to the needs of the engine, nothing to do with speed.
Speed is the result of the force applied to a mass that has some air resistance aka Drag.
For starters DSI intakes have an ideal mach number of Mach 1.4, thus on F-35 you have a fat nose and low swept wings.
Top speed is the condition where the thrust of the aircraft, equal to the drag of it.
The problem is that, all air breathing engine aka jet engine can only use air at a specific range of speed, their max thrust is not a constant fixed value. For turbojet and turbofan engine, they need the air entering them to be subsonic, otherwise they will lose thrust. To slow down the airflow that enter the engine, you need to create shock wave, and that why the inlet design is important for speed. As you need to slow down air (recover the pressure).
Aircraft such as F-16, Rafale have much lower top speed compared to F-111, F-14 even though they have slender design and can accelerate better. That because the variable inlet of F-111, F-14 are more suited to slow down air at high Mach speed compared to the fixed inlet of F-16, Rafale. Top speed of modern fighter jet have everything to do with their inlet design
Putting a bunch of random words and photo together does not help your argument, especially when you don't even understand them.Stealth is your fantasy probably you should start stop watching top gun Maverick

the angle of reflection is what is used to reduce the RCS but electromagnetic waves are not destroyed they still remain and can be used by other radars to detect stealth aircraft.

diffraction basically creates the creeping wave besides conduction and retransmission of surfaces of radio electromagnetic waves

besides diffraction makes using ventral fins and misaligned canard and wings more visible J-20 than F-22.
But in reality nothing is stealth mainly because of diffraction and conductivity

So nothing is stealth because aircraft are basically not destroying electromagnetic waves and powerful radars do see stealth, your fantasy you believe F-35 is invisible like wonder woman invisible jet

Firstly, no one ever said electromagnetic waves are destroyed when they hit a stealth aircraft. Stealth aircraft are designed so that their shape deflect the radiowave to other direction except the direction of enemy radar. They are also covered with RAM which help convert radio wave to heat.
Secondly, as for diffraction issue, there is pretty good reason why the leading edge and trailing edge of stealth aircraft all have edge treatment
