I think you've got it but just to clarify: the jumping rating is all that matters, no matter the height a 20 jumper will be higher in the air than an 18 jumper (again regardless of height). But as a function of anticipating development, or jumping potential, you should bear in mind that a shorter player will most likely not reach the same level of jumping as a taller player might. Height will be an indicator of how a player's jumping might develop.
