It's smoother, and better and it's combined in to one simple thing, movement.

not omg press esc. key and move.
not omg hit enter a second time and move.
not omg i did it all at the same time myself but it locked up my movement and I died to ifrit cracks/hellfire/etc.

I don't know what the obsession is with wanting to do -more- work to cancel a spell.
Hitting esc is just like hitting the spell a second time to cancel it tbh. So i agree with this 100%
