It might finally result in Barry running at those infinite speeds that his comic book counterparts could attain when going all out, and actually outracing the Black Flash. Sounds cool. I've only read one storyline with Black Flash in it and at the time I didn't understand what it was supposed to be, but now I'm like oh...that was Death. Cool. It was supposedly Death for Speesters, as the normal thing wouldn't be able to catch up to The Flash or other people connected to the Speed Force.

Apparently as a sort of Psycopomp for them when they die, unless they just run so fast they break into the Speed Force itself.
