The problem I see with fooling with how jump works after the fact is Larian's design of the game's environments. For some reason, Larian wants us to jump up even pitifully small elevations as opposed to climbing or levering ourselves up said incline. I'm not sure what the point of this is, but it's there nevertheless. Are there any critical paths in the game that require jumps of at least ten feet? Since any creature, regardless of strength, can make a ten foot jump.
Though I have noticed, in some cases, that Gale can make jumps he can't normally make in 'follow mode'.
