A pair of flying boots has far less impact than a single staff of storms
Generally true, but the boots are far cheaper also. And the boots are an "offensive" weapon (in that they enable certain strategies), while the staff is mainly a "defensive" weapon (in that it disables certain strategies). Overall, in Dominions, a strong argument can be made (and has been by some) that offensive strategies are more powerful than defensive ones.

and this change would effectively limit flying to only the three air 3 nations.
You expect flying from air nations, not from almost everyone. The air nations would have a far easier go at it than other nations, true. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Changing the cost of flying boots needs to be balanced out with changes to other items and nations. Everything in Dom is interconnected, everything has ramifications and repercussions.
