Â In a world where "the aether did it" is a serious if unsatisfying answer, why is there even an argument about what is not only an obvious canon ability but one that is a classic and recurrent one throughout FF in general? They're not going to turn around and say "sorry guys, that whole jumping thing wasn't believable so we're going to remove it.
Because it boggles that everyone else got an explanation. The answer to the question "why" is hotly pursued by curious, obsessive-over-effing-video-games minds. I don't want anything removed, I just want to know how it works.
