Not if you died afterwards, and not if you had an extremely dire reason to do exactly that yet still didnt do it, for example, help your friend not being killed.
Igneel lasted much longer.
If thats the case then every single one of them was necessary to beat that timer, which means they all still clock in at FH tier, because FH was said to be able to do the same thing.
They performed at that level, sure, which means all combined are FH Zeref tier
No, and they don't need to, it's as worthless as Eileen summoning a meteor from space, just being able to dodge lightning alone is already objectively more impressive than flying across a continent. Unless the feat is used and accomplishes something in a fight it's worth nothing. Same with using 12 city level attacks per second, worthless unless there were people of notable power in those cities and they died from it. The scale of attacks, the real world speed of attacks, they all mean nothing unless they are compared to an actual character, It's like saying Tartaros Jellal is significantly stronger than current Erza because Sema requires energy levels magnitudes greater than anything Erza does.
Who cares? If Brandish's size lets her move across a country in a minute then it's still speed
I said this before also - they died because their bodies were unstable. It wasn't because of exhaustion from it. They had plenty of MP left, that I'd argue they can do it more than 3 times over. Ok, let me ask you this - consider them before Acno took away their soul, would they be able to replicate what they did, 3 or more times? I'd say, they can, effortlessly at that.
That's possible, maybe all of them were required to beat the timer if timer was the reason why they didn't help Igneel (that's the only explanation I can think of, so maybe that was the case). But the fact remains, that they did it after face activated, while FH was expected to do it before face activated
More like that's their floor. Since they showed no signs of exhaustion after that.
The meteor's speed in space is irrelevant, since it's significantly slower in Earth. If it indeed showed that speed IN EARTH, I would've said that's among the most impressive spells ever shown in the series. But, turned out it's just a stronger meteor than Jellol's meteor
The ~12 city level attacks is, again, a floor for their combat speed - because of the gap between each face (they can only attack when they come in contact with a face). Again, have we seen any non dragon character even come close to accomplishing this? They charge up for a long time even to fire a single city sized attack.
Sure, that's a fair argument - we can't judge for sure the powers of those attacks because we only know their AOE, but don't know the energy density (I believe that's your argument, right?). Well, we have to speculate at this point, the power face - do you think face would work on Zeref and Spriggans? I'd say yes (based on Alverez avoiding invading Ishgar). So, this would be the power of face (if you want to think face as a character) which parent dragons destroyed.
The distinction is that parent dragons' speed feat translates into combat speed. You can cover distance much faster than a house fly, but gook luck trying to hit it. Now, consider this fly being able to cover distance even faster than you (I doubt giant Brandish being able to cover Ishgar in a minute), and now try catching this fly.
The dragon parents died because Ancologia took their souls out of their bodies

Exactly. They died because they were unstable, not because of exhaustion or running out of MP from destroying faces
