Also considering how difficult and significant it is to have an 18 in any stat in BG3, stuff like Gloves of Dexterity is just stupidly OP.

Dump your Dex as a Barbarian > rush to known Gloves location > get a 10 point increase in the stat. +5 AC, +5 Ranged Attacks and Damage, +5 Initiative, +5 Dex Saving Throw, in the bounded accuracy frame of 5e is absurdly powerful. How does that even begin to compare to a +1 weapon that is on an appropriate power level?

The game is encouraging you to dump stats that are relevant to your class. In a role-playing game. It doesnt really get more counterintuitive and metagamey than that.
