What I'm trying to say is, you might theoretically be able to reach much greater speeds there, but you're still limited by your thrust and fuel. Shunting a ship into another dimension does not (necessarily) give it speed, so like it or not, all you're doing is essentially wasting your energy by getting into another dimension, that really IS all

No, not really. The whole theoretical idea of of warping space is that our dimension has curves and folds and by getting to another dimension you may be able to get there by a shorter actual distance traveled. Like a long curvey road that travels 100 miles to get around a mountain. If you could outfit your car with some sort of device that would allow you to drive straight through the mountain from point A to point B your car wouldn't need to be able to go any faster or farther then a normal car but would get there much faster then a car that had to follow the road.
