If Displacement were targetless, I would have to stop, face target, Displace, then continue running. Removing the target requirement from Displacement increases the freedom at the cost of making it more difficult to use in the middle of a mechanic, and I don't think the difficulty of use is worth the unnecessary freedom.
I see your point... I guess is more of personal preference at that, I kind of learned how to gauge the distance based on my character's perspective and I always could see more opportunities to backflip while not at melee range.
