I still don't see a problem. Their are choices, and consequences to those choices. And not every choice has an equal impact on each aspect of the game.The problem is that if your PC is dex based, you can be good at both melee and ranged thanks to rapiers. Care more about damage than defense? Dual wield rapiers and get within a point or two of damage per round of two-handed weapons.
Sounds like a good system to me.
