500FPM for unpressurized piston twins (AC50/PA31/PA34) is easy on the ears and seems to keep me nicely in (or out, as required) the control steps and sets up for an easy approach, allowing time for speed management (gear/flap) and engine temps.
Pressurised piston ops (601P) are a little different, but still 1000-1500 is pretty good, the cabin can keep 500 or less at that speed, and still gives you plenty of options for speed control and doesn’t have you in the yellow arc when it’s bumpy.
Adding a ROD/ROC restriction would be a pain in the a$$ and add another consideration to your approach that isn’t really needed.
As for skydiving, isn’t it get down as quick as you think you can get away with without tearing the wings off‽??
