Besides, Vulkin did something similar with lightning and there was no warnings there.

What I'm curious about is where people get the "Frisk dodged sunlight beams" argument from. I don't recall a single instance of such a feat. While the area warning can just be a game mechanic, reviving after death isn't and I think that's proof that Frisk didn't necessarily dodge the lightning.

As for Vulkin, that lightning does not appear to be going at light speed, let alone Mach 286, so I don't agree with this either (for now at least). You could argue that it's apparent speed has been massively slowed down for the sake of the player. I think that's taking assumptions too far.
