What I think is ridiculous is that the Kao-Toa have permanent True Sight that not even the Cloak of ND can protect you from--if you're there, they can see you--for no good reason at all. Yet the Illithids, who are supposed to be incredibly psionic and can read minds from half a mile away, can be Backstabbed, even though the D&D manuals clearly state that it's impossible to sneak up on them, or even near them.
