I agree with all of this heartily.
And I thought alvarez, khabib and Pettis had a shorter, pumping jab too.

However, I kinda wish jabs were the only punch unable to cause (atleast) a full KO.
Given how required they are for effective offense now, I keep having a lot of fights end with my opponent stunned, then KO'd by the step in jab I'm using to load my hooks/headkick, Leading to me slapping air around my collapsing opponent.

I think jabs should be able to cause an alert KO, but once the background chin meter is past the alert KD stage, jabs shouldn't be able to cause the heavier knockdowns I think.
Except maybe the running jab as you could consider that a cross thrown from open stance.

Just my two cents, what do you guys think?

Edit: fixed a typo.
