I previously made the same point. If you split the Health aspect away from ST and put it in a new attribute then you've devalued both of them relative to DX and IQ. If you're going to do that then really you should split them all to maintain the parity between attributes. There's no "hostility" to the idea it's just clearly not a well balanced one.
