I tinker with everything I play, regardless of the genre.
I used to think along these lines, but am increasingly beginning to think that genre specific, or perhaps more accurately, style specific rules have a lot of advantages.
Which is why I tinker. I want the rules to model the world as I see it. In cases where they don't, I tinker. For example, a more skilled warrior will do more damage with a weapon than a less skilled one. In the RAW, the characters BAB has no direct bearing on damage. So I use a resisted attack/defense roll system, with the 'overkill' being transferred to damage. I also use a wound penalty system, because it should be harder to function when you are wounded.
