This is exactly it, yes! I sat with my GM because of the answers in this thread and skimmed the Basic Set to see what we missed, and no one noticed that reducing attributes also counts as a disadvantage in itself. Because of this, I'd say the character probably had around 60 points he shouldn't have had! The issue simply didn't come up yet (previous characters had like -40 in all disadvantages). Some could say it is an optional rule but we'll enforce it for this reason.
I did follow the prerequisite chains and buffed the Innate Attack (Projectile) to a reasonable level, but it seems this won't be a perpetually protected flyer like he initially appeared to be. The disadvantage limit simply wasn't noticed.
That's not so say the character isn't viable - he is still quite strong. But more for a very specific, preferably non-combat role.
Thank you all for the answers!
