Less about the dev and more about how many people just don't like rolling for stats. Point buy is pretty much the standard for a reason, regardless of standard array/rolling for stats being in the book. I hate the randomness and have literally zero interest in stat rolling, it's kept me from playing more than a few TTRPGs. 100% glad they went the route they did, particularly as it'll probably be something that gets modded in easily enough for people that care that much.
