I like it too. IMO, the ability to earn talents independent of IQ increases is one of the few truly innovative changes that the LE rules made.

My own fix, however, depends on a more drastic revision. I didn't like how the game forced characters into two distinct phases of progression... build your stats until they get too expensive then switch to talents. I wanted the choice between stats and talents to stay (mostly) even at every stage of play. It's OK if both choices get more expensive as PCs advance - that's to be expected - the goal is simply to keep one option from significantly outpacing the other.

The other factor to consider, of course, is the rate at which XP is earned.
