Yoshi himself wants players to be unique in play style, this would help it.
I'd love a link to where that quote comes from.

Convoluted, complex stat systems that are complex for the sake of being complex does not aid in unique play styles. It makes them more confusing and difficult to set up. With the stats we currently have, there are a variety of play styles that one could utilize. Most people go with the cookie-cutter standard but that's more of an issue with the community than how the stats work.
