Neither can this car. Unless 'any amount of time' is sub second, then fine, it can hover. But then a brick on a ballistic trajectory also hovers when it is at the top of that trajectory.

No, a ballistic trajectory is at no point “hovering”. That was literally my point regarding the frog.

The amount of time a ballistic object hovers with a speed of 0 is also 0. It literally never hovers. Look it up.
