I enjoyed this philosophical perspective on a fat scientist and speedy hedgehog immensely.

Sonic being an agent of change is something baked so fundamentally into his character it makes him into an Dionysian archetype compared to Eggman's Apollonian status. Let me raise you an idea: why haven't those two killed each other yet? Sure Eggman tries a lot, but it would be a trifling matter for him to build a really big bomb, wait for Sonic to be asleep, then obliterate everything in a hundred mile radius of where he expects Sonic to be. Likewise, it would be zero effort for Sonic to figure out where Eggman is and introduce him to Newton's third law, and what happens to the human body when it gets hit at the speed of sound. Eggman could nuke Sonic, but it would not prove anything. There is no living creature on this planet capable of outsmarting a nuclear explosion. Eggman builds his extravagant machines and robots as much as an expression of the self as the desire to prove a philosophical point. LIkewise, running into Eggman at fast enough a speed to reduce the good doctor to a bloodied smear all over the room would be a thing of finality, a permanence that is anathema to Sonic's outlook on life. Not the murder, but because it would rob Eggman of his ability to self-determine. And that's why we will forever be witnesses to a fat scientist clashing with a fast blue hedgehog: because neither of them are willing to back down since it would mean admitting that they were wrong.
