A detail noticed on isfdb

From the Larry Niven entry

Teleportation

By Mind Alone (1966)
The Alibi Machine (1973)
All the Bridges Rusting (1973)
Flash Crowd (1973)
The Last Days of the Permanent Floating Riot Club (1974)
A Kind of Murder (1974)


I've never seen By Mind Alone that I know of; does it really belong with the others? The reason I ask is I assumed the JumpShift stories were Niven playing around with ideas from his "Exercise in Speculation: The Theory and Practice of Teleportation • (1969)" and By Mind Alone predates that.
