Does it? There is a certain rune that requires flight.

So I often had to 'waste' a turn or two to turn flight on, before running away, or fighting, or whatever. If it was on all the time, I wouldn't have had to 'waste' those turns.

i mean really
it's not like making shallow water "bridges" would change anything about those vaults: you'd still really really want flight, since being in shallow water is bad for every race that can't already traverse deep water
