It's implementation is less "Fly" and more "Enhanced Leap"

One of the main strategies of flight in DnD is to hover in mid air, so your squishy caster doesn't get beat up (With the risk being ranged attacks breaking your concentration and making you fall)

BG3 only lets you fly between ground locations and as such merely emulates high STR + Leap setups as opposed to being true flight.

That's DnD for you.

Misty Step is literally capped to 30ft distances.

Dimension Door is supposed to have a 500ft range but I can see how that one might be a bit broken if you can just DD through stuff and bypass like half the game...

Teleport is a 7th level spell so we don't have access to it in BG3 with the level 12 cap...
