An object traveling faster than the speed of light is going backwards in time in some frames, so there's not actually any disagreement between "going back in time" and "it would require the velocity to exceed the speed of light".

Where are you taking this information from? This "follows" from special relativity, where massive objects travel at strictly less than c.

Such statement don't have any physical meaning. You're braking the assumptions that were used to derive the equations you're relying on.
