Yes, having a system that uses a sum is more desirable, however,
it is only a very small part of the stat/playbalance problem.
IF you think the maximam rolled stats total is too high, its
very simple to lower the threshold (I forget which file, but
its not hard to find it).
But regardless of starting with fairly optimized or slightly
sorry stats, players will soon become godlike anyway. A more
important thing to fix is the stat potion/stat gains that players
make at higher levels (and this is a very old thread which I
wont go into again here...).
