You can always choose that the odds are something else. After all, you have chosen to believe that it's logical that all fighters (and all barbarians, rangers, and paladins) are proficient in all weapons, even though that is extremely illogical. Almost nothing in D&D is actually logical. Why is this bit of illogic so important to you but other bits you're willing to ignore?If your DM decided that your D&D fighter wasn't actually allowed to be proficient in swords because it's illogical that someone of your chosen social class would be able to afford one or been able to be trained in one, or because historically speaking, possibly wouldn't even be allowed to own one--would you be cool with that? Would you instead point out that limitation is illogical and unfun? Would you just leave the game? Would you suck it up and go adventure with your spear and shortbow instead, because those are the weapons you'd be logically allowed to have?</blockquote>
