design the 4e character right and your weakest saves can be very close, in part because there are only 3 and in part because two attributes can support a given save.
And because there are 6 saves some of which though rarer can be excruciatingly disabling this is not some minor thing even...
Generally speaking if you look at classless games they often include some stereotypical builds it highlights the function of classes and what they enable is easy creation of archetypes. In 4e another element approach to combat ie battlefield role was reflected as well (Gygax presenting fighters...
Being able to do tricks dependent on surprise or trickery so enemy once they have seen them are resistant to them (fool me once) always made sense to me. But doing a super leap that strains a muscle til you let it relax and other things makes sense to me as well. Not limiting those maneuvers is...
Roles in MMORPGs are just descendent of roles less explicitly described in D&D (Gygax for instance very much emphasized the fighter defending their allies by being the front line) ... the source is off on that element for instance.

But at high level you can hit it one more time. Totally the same.
I cannot point at a source but I have read he indicated when he couldn't get his daughter involved in D&D he felt the game was for boys. (insert reasons/excuses that most would not consider valid).
