Not Done Inline ActionsIn the current alpha spear cavalry isn't very effective in battlefields but in women raids. Since Sword cavalry were used in battle for out flanking enemies and deal a critical strike to the backward lines, I thought that increasing their movement speed would help them in that task and in escaping from Spear Cavalry which is more effective vs other melee cavalry because of their higher range and impact on the rider. I thought that providing them a 1,25x would give them a more deterministic role letting unvaried the performance vs most of the units f.e. skirmish cavalry is still able to defeat spear cavalry.

<History>This was the weapon of choice from horseback. This was the unit that would eventually evolve to the medieval knight (after heavy influence by the Sarmartians and their lances). Infantry were an easy kill; just ride them down and skewer them with your stick and its point on the end. As with all cavalry - it was only the rich and the nobles who were able to fight from horseback due to the cost of owning such a beast.</History> | <History>This was the weapon of choice from horseback.

These bonuses are considered deprecated, though I personally wouldn't mind having few well selected of them.
Your argument "now spear cavalry can outdamage a sword cavalry without compromise the sword cavalry role of "ranged units stalker" doesn't appear unreasonable.
