I find it silly to call that meta-game though, it is THE game. If its just "The player decides that their character that are only described in text form" then we are at the context border of what a game is and get closer to the territory of "lets just tell a story together". Which is fine if that is fun to you, but I am shy of generalized statements like "ability scores impair the experience of playing the role of your character." Lets not forget that for many people mechanics are fun, limitations are fun too.</blockquote>
