Problem is, jump is only an animation in the majority of MMOs that have it. It doesn't even let you bypass obstacles or explore more areas (which btw, the game has to be designed to be explorable via jump/swimming.) So all it would be is just adding an animation.

it can also be used in in-game PvE mechanics
Yet most MMOs it's not, which is why there are many that don't see the need for it. If this MMO was an Ys game, you better believe there better be a proper jump feature implemented.

Swimming should also be added for the same reasons, to promote a free, open and fluid world
Game has to be designed for it, it wouldn't promote anything really if it's just a feature slapped in (which it generally is in most games, notice how swimming segments are all generally the same?)
