1. Multiplayer issue. One player is walking around with all 18's while another used point buy?
This just dont feels right ... They had time and resource to go over all and every intimate scene, just to cover our ... private parts ... with convenient leafs and stuff ...
But didn't have enough time to include "Don't allow this method in my game!" button?
Yeah, it would have been fine it was an optional thing I think. It still would cause some problems for multiplayer but not in my guild.

That sounds like good reason ... Until you include to consideration how fast we will get option to respec.
Can we respec stats as well? Honestly asking - I really didn't catch that.

Well, and again, I support stat rolls, or increased point buy for whatever for single player, but the infinite stat re-roll thing isn't part of any ruleset in any version of D&D ever.
I just don't think people would be happy with RAW stat rolling. Then again they would probably just exit out, and start over, which would just piss them off.
Bioware had the wisdom at least to understand that if you are going to do stat rolls you may as well just make it infinite because they knew exactly what people would do.
Imagine if you rolled and then the game remember that for next game you started? Like, it insisted that you play by the rules? I would be able to bathe in the salty tears that would result in. Not feasible but still, it would be funny.
