I basically agree with the above, and also quit playing about the time 2nd edition rules came out. One more point to your question though, a wish spell (level 9 mage, or magic-user back in the day) could increase your stats, but only up to 16. It seems like maybe 10 wish spells might bring it up to 17 or something. There were probably a lot of players out there saying "I'm going to sit in my tower for three months and memorize Wish spells for my stats". I think the DMs usually lightning bolted these pricks, though.
