Don't quite see this. Movement speed does not directly affect the
chance of getting hit. But there are indirect effect. High speed makes
it easier to get into/out of range, into/out of cover etc. So shouldn't
high speed movement be more expensive than slow movement ?

Aren't you contradicting your self here ? IIRC, there is no direct
combat effect	for most mobility types, either.
