Changes to Levitate mechanic: more intuitive but probably a bit OP?

How would the balance of Ground type be affected by these changes?
1. Levitate is not an Ability anymore, but a characteristic of a pokemon species. They are either levitating or not, like they are a certain color or not. Anyone who had Levitate as an ability gets a new ability instead. Yes, the whole Gastly like is levitating except for Mega\Gigantamax Gengar. Yes, Rotom just got stronger.
2. Mud-Slap, Mud Shot, Mud Bomb, Bone Rush and Bonemarang ignore the Flying\Levitating immunity to Ground. Sorry Iono. (Or maybe the last two are Rock or Normal instead? What would be better?)

Free Immunities are always busted.

Free Immunities that don't take up an ability slot are extra busted.
