It would be annoying and complex, but if there were some way to motivate builds like that, it would be cool. Something like "this weapon ability is only available to characters with int of 12 or more..."

I'm not recommending or suggesting that at all, but "sorry, your fighter is too dumb/ not dexterous enough/ whatever to do this cool thing" would be an interesting dynamic
