Attribute Bloat 'Re-Deux'

How many XP do people imagine characters will ever earn? I don't think it is plausible that anyone will earn more than a few 10's of thousands, at least not in the foreseeable future. If a typical dedicated player averages one session per week, that will yield something like 5k per year, so you aren't going to get over 20-40k over the time scale I have in mind. Really, most people switch games, start new campaigns, etc. more often than that. Also, I suspect that players presented with the XP costs in the RAW are not going to sit on 8-16k EP for years on end to gain their 41st, 42nd, stat stat point; instead, they are going to spend those on talents, spells, staff power and lesser wishes.
