I wish they'd been completely consistent in-universe and that Sisko had been able to theorize how the space-jetstream had been able to form a sort of warp bubble around the lightsail ship because otherwise it wouldn't have been able to enter true warp, it'd just be accelerated to to high fraction of C without protection from time dilation, but they clearly didn't have any time dilation occur and were clearly in warp.

I know this is a very silly thing to kind of nerd out about, but it's sort of well established in universe that the warp bubble exists for ensuring that the ship can move that fast, and for protecting from relativistic effects. Either that or the Trek universe is effectively saying that relativity doesn't exist.
