As someone who works with the NYS parks staff (not just there at Taughannock, but in other state parks), I thank you for not making their lives more difficult. :)

I suppose it depends on how semantic and nitpicky you want to get. Inspiration is a single plunge in that it's predominantly free-falling, but it does touch the cliff face in places too (picture), similar to what Fall Creek does, but because it's such a small stream it rarely kicks far enough out from the cliff to really fall cleanly.
If the qualifier is 100% free-falling, no-contact-with-the-cliff-at-all then yeah Taughannock does take the title.

I believe it! I felt incredibly dumb after my own experience there. Very nearly watched a friend die there.

I think the signs got put up after someone got killed by a rockfall.

I don’t know what to think anymore. This has been a roller coaster!
Inspiration isn’t a single plunge, so that would make taughannock the tallest single plunge right?

It's a little lesser known, but check out the Edward Lake Cliff area in Lansing. You can follow the gorge up a ways and it ends up in a beautiful waterfall close to 34 with some of the best acoustics I've ever seen. I think you can park just off of Sun Path to get down there, but the Lake Cliff area is a beautiful hike. Bring some boots that are ready for serious mud if you're there in the spring though. We're talking the kind of mud that'll pull normal shoes right off your feet.
Also there are a bunch of wild juniper and Asian pear trees throughout!
