Indeed, I'd entirely agree. There's also the consideration of whether
it _can_ effectively resist. After all, if some used their Human
Vaulting feat on you, you might _want_ to resist this, but the mind
boggles as to how you'd work out what an appropriate ability to do so
with actually is...
(None of this of course contradicts the HQ example, of course, it just
isn't explicit in it either.)
