Well, yes, but you also jump when you flick the Control Stick upward. Personally it was always sort of a "nyeeehhhhhhh" thing to me when trying to use Link's Spin Attack or Captain Falcon's Raptor Boost and wasting the jump 80% of the time. In Brawl you are given the option to disable the automatic Tap Jump and instead use solely the buttons for jumping on your controller (being a GCN lover, the X and Y side buttons). It's great that you can turn it off, and I sort of wonder why it wasn't an option in the previous games. Heck, in Melee you can turn off everything but the Control Stick and A button; it would've been simple to disable Tap Jump, but I digress.
