Not really sure what this thread is about
It's not really cryptic. It seems to me that the topic is quite explicitly explained.
It's about a mixture of questionable visual presentation AND questionable mechanical chances.
We were just discussing this in the discord and the consensus was that it's funny. I mean, I know it's wrong but I can't help having fun with it. To me it's balanced by the fact that the enemy gets the ability to do it as well as a bonus action and I have 100% been yeeted right off a cliff.
And I found that extremely funny as well...because "death is the biggest joke of all." - The Comedian
And let me guess: for the sake of this sudden fondness for comedy, you would HATE if it looked somewhat convincing and falling bodies behave like actual falling bodies (you know: like, actually falling down rather than floating horizontally for several meters before tracing an arc).
