True; but the energy it takes to get over the bump doesn't depend on the
speed of rotation.  It's the same whether you do it fast or slow.

This is the error in your reasoning.  Assuming the kick is an EM pulse
generating, say, a 1 Tesla field, the duration of the pulse and
subsequent energy decreases with higher RPM.  At the limit (excluding
inductance), the pulse width is zero; hence, Jones post on this
subject.
