Your class will have the stats based on the class level, so no advantage there.

If they had kept Physical Level but implemented a stat profile per class, so we could distribute stats however we saw fit for each of out classes, then you could have an advantage, but sadly that is not the way it went.
Currently, if I wanted to spec for fishing I would put all my points in DEX and PIE. But then when I want to play my DoW classes, I would either have to respec all my points, or just stay with the inherent disadvantage of low stats in everything except DEX and PIE.

Now that they will distribute the points, for the most part, automatically, I will not have to switch my points to play another class. They will be appropriately distributed to maximize whichever class's effectiveness I choose to play.

I will have an advantage with this change, because I am disadvantaged now putting all my points in one or two stats to maximize a class. If I switch classes, I am majorly disadvantaged. With the changes, my stats will automatically be optimized; thus an advantage.
