A better way to simulate biological differences, e.g. between different species or between different sexes, is to alter the cost of attributes, e.g. by making Elves pay only 19 CPs per level for DX, but 11 CPs per level for ST.

The only problem is deciding how that works with species templates (and sex templates too, if the fact of sexual dimorphism is acknowledged).
