I always looked at the Paladin/Cleric as a fork in a road; you either went one way (stat-wise), or the other, rather than try to play both primary stats. I liked that the classes were two sub-classes under one heading, because they felt very different while still having the same overall fluff. It allowed a frontline cleric and a ranged cleric, as opposed to just one or the other. (However, now the Bard does this, splitting Melee and Ranged while still using the Primary). The biggest drawback that I've found to the split-classes (as the article notes, V shaped) is that some levels, the powers overly favor one over the other, resulting in no choices. There's a level of Paladin where all the powers are Cha-based. There's a level of cleric where you have one Wisdom-primary power, one Str power, and then two non-stat relying powers (level 5, I believe).</blockquote>
