Yeah, I've always been astounded by the immediate backlash of any new addition. Whether it's broken or working as intended, people are going to spam it just because it's new and shiny. All things considered though, it's a novelty---a fun one at that. Sure, a jumper may have a perceived advantage in access points (leaping over and behind, second level structures, etc.), but as already mentioned in ALL these threads, trajectories are very predictable, damage has not increased, SPEED has not increased, and damage applies to the fall (compounded by the lack of slots to compensate, if maxing the jump).
Having hardly any skills in this, my jumps are relatively short so I may be wrong on this part; but it felt as though my jump climb ended the moment I released the button. It seemed very difficult to maintain a jump, switch my thumb to my right analog to aim and hit with any consistency. I'm talking AR---anything more than single projectile or SG. I assume a lot, but seems like weapon choice may be hindered with the fit. I doubt I'll do any more with it so I guess it doesn't matter, just felt awkward.
When I first started a scout, I had to get used to watching my six and the minimap due to relatively low HP. It took adjustments, but I was able to adjust. Last night when I got home to finally screw around with it all, it was fun for a few minutes. Then I got bored. Then I went back to my A-Sent. HMG and waddled my heavy ass around shooting whatever I could again. Only now, I know to look up from time to time. I can always have a scout fit for just this, jumping around cloaked to infiltrate. I doubt I'll have much use for it other than that.
I agree. Let it play out and give it a rest already. =(

Full Disclosure: I am a horribly bad player. My opinions on the matter may, or may not offer anything besides the obvious... or the obviously misunderstood. If you actually read my reply, then my sincerest apologies. I am sorry too, for stating this here at the end of it all to admit what you have probably already assumed well before this statement, effectively forcing you to wade through my rambling pointlessnesses. My heavy waddles, though. So can you. Or not. But you've read to this point already, so ... you can. And I knew you could. I am proud of you. Truly. And I am pleased. And bored =\
