Back in 1e/2 monsters never had ability scores. I have very mixed feelings about keeping monsters ability scores.
I get that you "need" them in 5e in order to make saving throws.
But the fact that a zombie is more charismatic than some player characters seems weird.
Do you think its an important piece of D&D that will stay forever? Does it add anything to the monsters apart from fulfilling mechanics?
Would you keep it for 6e/7e?
