IQ gain and free talents?

A 40 point character only has 4 more talent points than when they started at 32, which is a very small amount of change for the years of play it could take to get to 40 points. Yes it's nice to start with 16, but knowing you'll never get passed 20 talent points seems to take much of the fun out of the future.

Yeah, that's why I think keeping the option to buy TP at 500 a pop might be a good way to supplement that.
