"Here's my case: 1) Stats are not scaled to size. 2) Bodies are optimized for flight regardless of size.
A sprite with strength 30 will fly the same as a sword-demon with strength 30.
Adding size to the formula for maximum flight height works to scale strength to size, violating tenant one."
Not at all. NOT adding size to the formula would violate tenant one. Since a str 80 SD and str 80 sprite have equal strength, can lift equal ammounts, but the sprite has a much smaller body, the sprite is stronger -relative its body-. Doing a pushup for the sprite would be very easy since it wouldn't have as much body to lift, while it would be hard for the SD, with its much heavier body.
Of course, if strength DID scale, they would have an equal hard/easy time doing a pushup. But, tennant 1 says strength doesn't scale.
