Anything that has over 6 jump mp's is getting high on the cheese scale, IMO.

Let's face it, Movement mods works better then armor.
How else can a lite mech surive?

I like the design, but no honorable Warrior would pilot a Mech designated the "Butterfly"!(Never catch me in a Flea either) Perhaps if it was called Mothra or something a bit more fearsome? How about the Yellowjacket?

Exactly, which is why it's delicate form should remain in poetry and art, not on the bloodied battlefields where courage and fortitude are required.

Well, if it helps soothe the soul, I could repost the infamous Damselfly. The mech no one loves but me. *sniffle*

Yep, and against a mech of similar speed and longer range weapons (like a large laser) the Jenner loses a large percentage of the time.

Nope, but there is still the 9R Panther, 3C Cicada, 2R Clint, or the 4K Hermes 2.
Plenty more level 1's that fit the bill too

I though the Level 1 Panthers are only 4/6/4 !
You call that a similar speed to 7/11/5 ?

Not the same speed, but the same weight, 35 tons.
Have an issue with fighting a same weight and slower mech?
