Wouldn't it be practical at times to keep them harmlessly hanging in the air? And as I said earlier, they could absorb kinetic energy (making them immune to physical damage) and release it later. That's breaking the 3rd law of physics. There must be some good application for that.
Also Cal Kestis uses it just so he has some bolts floating around in case he needs them.
Unless I'm mistaken, you couldn't teleport through space, see what was happening across the galaxy, see and interact with any event in history and heal mental scars.
And then there's the point about possibly being in two places at once with the Force Dyad.
Another thought: We met Immortal Rur who could turn himself into a mist of sorts. Rur in legends was very different.
We also saw the Abersyn Symbiotes and how they somehow enhanced the powers of a force user.
And the hookspore fungus which essentially created a hive mind force user, who was made of a million different quasi-unkillable bacteria which could split into multiple collective bodies but stay attached to one mind.
Why would you want to keep them in the air right in the middle of combat? Now you're having to focus on keeping them still while also fighting, which doesn't really make much sense if all you're intending to do is kill the enemy or incap them.
It's just something that looks cool, but I honestly don't see why one would use it for combat when there's much better and easier solutions.
I was mainly referring to the powers you specifically listed, not that Force Dyad thing which is clearly something unique to Rey/Ben specifically. Same with TWBW, that's not really a power though in either case.
Also teleporting objects, it's pretty much just Fold Space which the Aing-Tii could do along with others who learned it.

How's that? Didn't they like, duel in various places of the past or something with it?
Also speaking of Force Harmony, I just realized that the Shadow Guards of all Force Users can do it...huh...well that's certainly something, never thought I'd see that.
I thought that "Force Stasis" was its own power specifically because you didn't have to concentrate on keeping the bolts still anymore. You could just make them still once and they'd stay that way.
Given that the bolt we see Kylo does eventually move, there is clearly a limit on how long it's either there, or Kylo released it, in which case they can't just be there indefinitely and require some measure of concentrate to be kept still regardless.
My bigger question is, why they made this Force Stasis a main ability for it rather than...just have it be an application of TK. I mean Vader essentially did the same what Kylo did in the Coruscant Night series against I-5, only it was just an application of TK.
You can’t know that for sure. Maybe he locked it into place, inertia and all, and then consciously unlocked it out of stasis.
If it was just holding it in place, then he wouldn’t have called it another power, and it wouldn’t have been reincorporated when he froze Rey. It’s TK the same way that force choke is TK
I don”t really see an issue with it at all, no. Everything from legends was “exaggerated” to one extent or another compared to what we saw in the films.

I don't think Rey and Kylo are overpowered in actual combat. And Palpatine destroying fleets single-handedly is nothing we haven't seen before in Legends.
Regardless of their powers or lack thereof, the movie is absolutely terrible. I expected nothing more from the conclusive film of this abysmal trilogy, though.
