Also, during early levels we are not really 'larger than life heroes', I would assume that would come later in the game when we much higher levels?
To add on to this, in certain playthroughs, my Tav is (can be) a complete and utter novice who got picked up by the ship. Not a hero, or a great warrior, or anything special. Just a normal dude who has to fight to survive, and in doing so
gradually discovers his potential within. Most Fighter level 1 and 2 abilities make sense for this: swing a sword, get a little bonus to my chosen Fighting Style, swing a sword twice once per short rest, etc. But the superhero-esque jumps and 10+ foot shoves feel out of place for my idea of Tav in these cases. He should certainly be able to jump/shove, but not as cartoonishly far.
