Also to consider is that this kind of thing would undermine the DX attribute considerable, turning it into a dump stat outside of combat hit rolls, and my gut says that might well be undesirable.

Would attributes contribute modifiers at all? If not, but they were to continue being used as prerequisites for talents, stats would have value but would be less apt to unbalance the game as they reached higher levels.
