The plausible range of stats would be larger if the cost curve for skills was different.
Exactly! What would be a more realistic cost curve for skills? I tinkered with some different models but never came up with anything satisfying. My first solution was that all skills had a fixed cost for a level, but stats above 10 gave a 10% cost reduction. So DX 15 means that all DX-based skills cost 50% less. But I abandoned this as it had lots of issues.
