Comment:

 I've looked into this and talked to md5 about it, we agree that this is
 out of scope for ScummVM. For better or worse, the RPG-stat logic is what
 makes the QFG games what they are, whether they make sense or not. I know
 a discord server of QFG fans that would be upset if we started
 editorializing those rules. Also, I'm not sure we could patch this if we
 wanted to, and we wouldn't know what to change it to.

 Ash's fan patch is the place to go to for these kinds  of fundamental
 improvements. The *huge* number of fixes it contains, all written by
 someone who knows the game thoroughly, demonstrates what it takes to
 really fix this game at a high level. You have to rewrite and restructure
 entire scripts, that amounts to hundreds of changes. It's beyond we can or
 should or want to do, and that's why we happily support Ash's fan patch.
 (I make sure all my QFG3 script patches are compatible with it.)
