I personally believe Jab lock setups will improve the meta fast. If a certain move or action disables the opponent long enough so that they hit the ground (like Pika's F-Throw at low percents for heavy) and that character has a move which can lock, then teching is enforced on the opponent otherwise they'll get locked, but the thing is, Jab locking could be used for mind games (Unless the action gives no ability to the opponent, so they can't even tech, that's a free lock) and you could scare people into thinking you'll do the lock, so when they tech in a direction, you would know where to chase them and come up with a combo that way. If they miss the tech you'd be able to Lock them and start a combo that way.

I know I didn't explain well, and you'll probably debunk this, I just really think Jab lock setups will speed up this game.
I don't have an example unfortunately.
