You make everyone take the astral worm? You are a monster lol. Lae'zel is one of my core characters and an absolute favorite and I can't imagine bullying her into taking it. Besides at 22str I think she can jump about 60' anyway.
I might try it because it sounds fun but oh man. Lae'zel and Karlach have been through enough! I could totally see Gale and Wyll and Halsin, though. It's just that those three are never in my group except when needed for story reasons.
The worm gives you persuasion and intimidation expertise for a reason.
I tried to make them all eat it in my honor run. Laezel it didn't work with since she has two checks but everyone else was fine since they put up minimal arguments against using it. Except Astarion of course, he used it as quick as I did.
My experience with Lae'zel:
L: Keep that ghaik shit away from me!
Me: [Persuasion] You'd be really powerful.
L: Hand that shit over.
My experience with Astarion:
A: Fuck. No.
Me: [Wisdom] But...
A: 1. Leave
Which sucks because he has all my lockpicking ability and a big chunk of my DPS and now he's the only one who can't fly. Maybe Minthara can respec as Gloomstalker and take his place. She was all about that worm. Didn't even have to roll.
Interesting, my astarion refused and says he didn't want to become another monster.
Jumping takes a bonus action, fly doesn't.
With the right gear and cheese there's a way to make jumping free as well (unless fixed - I've never tested it). But your point is well taken.
