DRG: Why no reduced fall damage?

[kyrios91]

It's not really anything much and it's not related to fights. Lore-wise DRGs would logically have reduced fall damage since all of their jump skills launches them to the air and they land without receiving any recoil. The maneuver itself defies all laws of physics, really.

What annoys me that if there's a ground AoE and if you SSD / DFD and you fly across the AoE, you'll receive damage / debuff from it (Which happened to me with T11 gravity wells). I was like come on now, what's the point of making DRGs fly across the screen if you'll still get hit by something on the ground? If it's Shoulder Tackle, it makes sense since the MNK zooms to the boss. But DRG / NIN / BLMs are technically flying / teleporting o_O
