Really I don't see much of a difference between 3e and 4e in that regard.In fact every edition of D&D promoted this kind of play style. If a character didn't place their best stats in their primary ability scores they were simply making a weaker character than they could have. A cleric who didn't place their highest roll in Wisdom faced the very real possibility of not being able to cast 9th level spells later in the game. While I am sure some players may have done this it wasn't done in any of the groups I have ever played with. I will admit that if your games don't go into the upper levels then this problem would not be noticed as easily. The majority of my groups games end when we are either near or past 20th level. If I played a cleric that wouldn't make it past 10th level though I would build the character differently.Later,Rzach\</blockquote>
