So because a completely different games jump animation looked not to your liking you are being completely unreasonable and willing to except that a game that looks 100 times better couldn't pull off a better jump animation? Also SE has never said what jumps purpose is going to serve so you cannot just say it is only going to be in the game to look cool. Also having the option to jump instead of being planted to the ground like a plant is worthy in itself to be in the game and the fact it isn't in the game right now makes the game feel old and dated. Of course we have different opinions on this and doesn't matter what I say you are going to believe what you want to believe.
