This is why actual strength as in ability to lift things is in part based on size and with the sole exception in 5e of small = medium you double how much you can lift with each new size category.But that's just strength. Strength covers a range of things including speed and application. For example climbing and swimming, and your ability to hit. Climbing should not be easier as your size category goes up. Swimming? We have to do odd things here anyway. And accuracy when swinging a weapon? That probably shouldn't scale the way lifting does with size.</blockquote>
