SuperJump
Here's the thing - I'm not opposed to having both our ascend and descend speed being faster. Hell, it would make a lot more sense. However, consider that doing this means either Super Jump becomes a MUCH faster travel power, or else we start making a LOT shorter jumps with relatively the same height, which is one of the things I hated about the original suggestion.
Here's an anecdote that keeps repeating for me. A friend of mine is over so we can play together, I stand at the edge of a tall roof, looking at a building FAAAR in the distance, I elbow him in the ribs and ask: "Think I can make this jump?" He usually goes "No way! That's too far." Then I jump and make the distance with momentum to spare. THAT is why our Super Jump is cool. I don't want my jump DISTANCE to drop any, and increasing the speed of jump ascent and/or descent would mandate reducing jump distance. Simple as that.
