What this all leads to is that the numbers are definitely not a good thing to have there, even if they might roughly reflect a couple of different systems besides D&D.

By the way, this doesn\'t even reflect D&D on the whole; I know 2nd and 3rd editions and it only sounds like the latter. In 2nd edition, numbers above 18 were dramatically superhuman so that a huge giant\'s strength score might only be 21, even though if actual strength had been linearly scaled to the number (whatever that might mean exactly), it wouldn\'t even be able to move at a few points higher than human(ly possible) strength. 3rd edition still seemed to have a slight bias in this way but would admit that eg. a moderately large animal like a horse should already have a 20+ Str score.
