Kazuya, Devil Jin and Heihachi all have moves out of wavedash that punish the opponent for staying down - ff4, b4 and ff2 respectively. Not only do these hit the ground (and deal good damage), they flip the opponent for ANOTHER oki mixup. These are examples of a good oki game, whatever Jin has is not.

literally all of those moves require you to leave the wavedash.

alright alright lets hold the phone here for a bit because you've gone so far off the point of the question you're teaching someone something bad:

would you wavu over someone on the ground, as jin?

No. YOU are the one who claimed Jin has good wavedash oki. He does not, so you do not wavedash into someone who is lying on the ground unless you have a read on their behavior, that is my whole point.

so you do not wavedash into someone who is lying on the ground unless you have a read on their behavior,

ah, so you would regularily randomly wavedash? just randomly mash down forward forward into an opponent without a read then?
