The cleanest explanation was that he’s Superman because his powers give a psychokinetic field around his body that can absorb kinetic and other energy. It’s what makes him invulnerable except for kryptonite that can just bypass and negate that field. It can also extend over other people so they can lift along and it can absorb the energy from the fall.

Alright, that’s enough nerding out.
The best part of the theory is it really does answer quite a lot of problems with his power set.
It’s hand waving comic nonsense in the end still, but in a better way than “because Speed Force”
