Here, we argue that, despite all-new findings of phenomena with very large Lorentz factors, the importance of the magnetodynamic process accelerating and collimating AGN jets should not be affected because there exists evidence in the features of the jets and tails at large distances indicating that the wiggles of the jet structure are likely to be due to a magnetic, helical kink instability. These systematic features require too much energy and coherence of the driving process to be produced locally and axe most naturally produced by a magnetic effect coming from the powerful central engine. This indicates that the major effect producing the jets, and the lobes with hotspots at the tips of the jets, is likely to be the Poynting flux carried by torsional Alfvén wave trains plus the re-accelerated high-energy particles in them. The very large Lorentz-factor phenomena should not hinder the transfer of these magnetic effects and are likely to be byproducts of the basic magnetodynamic process, and not the reverse.
