You see it would be impossible for the convener belt to match the speed of the airplane because the plane isn't moving forward by motion of the wheels it's moving forward by the propulsion of air through the engine.

Think of it like this, A car’s wheels are its means of propulsion—they push the road backwards (relatively speaking), and the car moves forward. In contrast, a plane’s wheels aren’t motorized; their purpose is to reduce friction during takeoff (and add it, by braking, when landing). What gets a plane moving are its propellers or jet turbines, which shove the air backward and thereby impel the plane forward. What the wheels, conveyor belt, are up to doesn't really matter as once the pilot fires up the engines, the plane moves forward at pretty much the usual speed relative to the ground—and more importantly the air—regardless of how fast the conveyor belt is moving backward.

All the conveyor belt does is make the plane’s wheels spin madly. So if a plane moves forward at 10 knots through the air then it will move forward at 10 knots the conveyor belt will just make the planes wheels spin faster. And if the plane can move forward it can generate lift = plane takes off.

Wrong, a plane can't just aviate just because the engines get some air, it needs forward momentum to be able to get its ass near the ground and use aerodynamics, according to your logic, the plane would need to be like a hydra yet and be able to launch upwards, it can't move forward, it needs the wheels for that, if the plane is on the ground, the engines is only there to move the wheels until it can finally aviate, if you can't move forward you can't go in the sky. done.
