I apologize, as I was also being a douche. But your post further illuminates that you do not understand what I'm trying to say. Perhaps I've been explaining it poorly.

I don't necessarily mean to say that Tusk ACT 4 isn't a punchghost, rather that it's not a punchghost like what we're used to: it doesn't follow the same rules that we use to classify "punchghosts". It is not a punchghost that applies the infinite spin to things it touches, it IS the infinite spin, shaped to look like a punchghost in order to fit the aesthetic of Stands. ACT 4 is shown phasing through/inside of objects to help visualize that it is the energy itself.

Because of this, feasibly any contact with ACT 4 should imbue the infinite rotation into whoever hits it. There are several instances in the High Voltage arc where Diego is right next to Tusk, during stopped time, and still doesn't go for the hit, because it would spread the rotation to him. It is, therefore, seemingly impossible to directly attack Tusk ACT 4.

Also while it's not relevant to the argument, I refuse to accept that Tusk comes from the corpse. The corpse helped Johnny use his Stand until he was mentally strong enough to do it himself, but it was never the source of it. To say otherwise is contradictory to both how Stands work, and the themes of SBR.

Stand leaping is shown in one fight only, and is incredibly inconsistent even within that fight. If Jotaro could easily jump 20 meters, why would he not have done so when he was trying to stop Kira from using BtD at the end of DiU? Or when he was trying to get to Ratt? These inconsistencies lead me to believe that the Stand leaping distances shown during The World fight are likely exaggerated (as distance often is in Jojo), and the Stand's actual leap distance cannot be more than 5-10 meters at best.
