I don't regard buffing my Mages before scribing spells as cheesy, certainly not as cheesy as some things that your enemies do, like casting True Sight even though they're Conjurers. Considering that I never use Mislead, Project Image, or any spell-storage spells, and Simulacrum only very rarely, I think chugging a few Potions of Genius seems rather negligible.

Besides, I always use natural rolls for my characters, and it's tough enough getting good DEX and CON for everybody without making sure that all Mages roll their maximum in INT, as well.
