When I cheat on stats, it's for roleplay purposes--like when I made an Elven Mage/Thief with 18s in INT and WIS, I decided to give him Quayle's voice and hack his CHA down to 4 (Elves can't legally go lower than 8) because he's so arrogant and irritating. Or if I was doing a Lord of the Rings game, I'd hack Gandalf's INT and WIS to be through the roof, and give Frodo 20 CON to make him very difficult to kill, etc.

Cheating for actual gameplay purposes is stupid, though.
