If only there was some kind of book designed for using traitor space marines with infiltrating elite troops. One could only wish...
Night Lords don't spam jump packs. None of the original legions had jump packs in large numbers. Night Lords use slightly more raptors (and bikes according to the third ed book) than other traitor legions but they're still supporting units.
No traitor legion actually has Raptors anyway. Raptors are a seperate group made up of guys from multiple legions. If you had a mostly jump pack chaos army then they wouldn't be a Night Lords army even if they had Night Lords geneseed and armour painted in Night Lords colours. They'd be a Raptor army, possibly one with Night Lords allies but calling an army with only a few Night Lords in it a Night Lords army would be like calling an army with one unit of berserkers a Khorne army.
