Str allows you to use str based weapons, which tend to be much higher damage ranges. Dex does the same, but also gives you a bonus to defense.

So, the thought of a caster who uses str weapons up close form time to time and works in a little dex to help in defense is "not usable"?

Sounds like what is "usable" is a matter of opinion and build choices.
