I think the misunderstanding comes from people not knowing how the ability itself works. After you start a Cyclone Slash, you can mash the attack button to extend the duration (and of course this also increases the total possible damage) of spinning. This also changes the way Cyclone Slash behaves in the air.

Cyclone Slash without mashing attack = Falling Faster. Cyclone Slash with mashing attack = Falling Slower.

(This is now also mentioned on the wiki page, not sure when that was added)
