I noted this when making an ogre vs half ogre holy warriors. With the limits on disads you couldn't get as much ST for the character.
On the other hand, you can't get into town, either. Those disadvantages still count for gameplay purposes!

I tend to think of it as the attribute lowering being the real kicker.

Consider making WL the human "perk." Regardless of template, humans can pump it high. Helps explain human dominance, is a useful thing for most PCs, and almost required of a hero anyway.

Humans are the masters of selling Watery Lemonade, this allows them to maximize profits while minimizing costs leading to an unlimited Wealth Level.

What he meant? Maybe.

Clearly? Most definitely not. :)

How about.... Humans are the children of Fate. Other races have to buy an Unusual Background (1/4 the cost of their racial package) if they want to buy Destiny. Humans don't.
