Why is the Aran class so unpopular?

I was thinking, since Combat Step's called, well, Combat Step, we could do it this way:

Aran doesn't get aerial mobility. Instead, Aran gets superior ground mobility; Combat Step regains its old delay (instead of the current OMGSPAM crap), but the distance you cover with it gets doubled (or more). Make it stun(?) enemies you ram into, or get close enough to, something like an elbow bash. Hell, make it a new exclusive stun-like debuff that gives you some kind of bonus (bonus damage?) for the next 3 seconds or so, or simply make it chain into any attack, so that it basically sets you up for a combo. For a cool factor, give Combat Step a faster version of Tornado Spin's old "slide to a halt" animation.

Yeah...I'm out of ideas.

That sounds simply awesome!
Reading all of these posts about everyone's Arans has pushed me to remake my two previous ones in Bera. Plus, that female Aran hair is so amazing
