There's a reason why you couldn't completely redo your stats in a matter of moments. Of course the fact that you could redo your stats in the first place had to be balanced to the point where stats matter very little with caps and forumlas.
If the new stats were linked with a different kind of weapon, and were distributed like it is now then you would avoid this problem. For instance if you swapped out your lance for a sword you can have different stats, which I will note that this cannot be done in combat.

However with that said, you would first have to make stats matter before you implement a system for swapping stats.
