I didn't say "Optimized". I said "Min-maxed DX/IQ". The wizard is optimized for fighting with monsters, not for casting spells.

And I'm pretty sure there are some posters here who if you gave 250 points, let them go off-template, and said "Build a combat caster" would put the standard templates to shame. I have two in mind right off the bat, and that's just the folks I've played with. DF is better than some other places, but its not the gold standard for min-maxing.
