" I don't see your proof. Anyway, the only meteor Madara threw at Gaara is the one Anouki lightened. Not very impressive stopping a lightened meteor, especially since we don't know how much it was lightened"

And then Madara dropped ANOTHER Meteor on top of that meteor, which Onoki couldn't lighten, which then fell down on Gaara and Onoki and the rest of the Shinobi Alliance forces at that point (Plus one Naruto clone): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8i6hrx41990

Also of note: going by your logic, Itachi is a lightning-timer for pulling up his Susano'o right before Sasuke's Kirin struck. And Kirin is natural lightning, focused into a single point, as stated by Sasuke: http://www1.mangafreak.net/Read1_Naruto_391_6#gohere

Also of note in the scan is that Zetsu gives a timeframe in which Itachi reacted, which is 1/1000 of a second.

Sasuke w/Mangekyou Sharingan is faster than Itachi was, and Gaara was capable of percieving and reacting to Sasuke at this point.

The scan used to make Toph 'lightning-timing' ALSO used faulty scaling. They assume base Aang at that point in time>Avatar State Aang in the final battle. Even moreso since Ozai was amped by Sozin's Comet. Not the case. Avatar State Aang is FAR above regular Aang and definitely above Toph's level by several orders of magnitude. In their regular state, the Avatar is just someone who has mastered bending of all four elements (Which is impossible for everyone else) but no physical advantages over a normal person. A fully realized Avatar is one who can enter the Avatar State at will, but otherwise has no difference from an un-realized avatar.
