Sure, it can do all the things a high strength can do (minus the damage), but it's utility in other situations outshines strength. AC, Reflex saves, Tumbling, avoiding touch attacks, initiative, ranged attacks, a large number of skills, etc. Maybe the solution is a feat that makes my highest stat apply to my Grapple checks. Wise Grapples, Genius Grappler, Endurance Grappler, Charismatic Grappler. My thoughts: Grappling rules are broken. Suggested fixes: Escaping a Grapple should be a move equiv. action. Improved Grappling should only give a +2 bonus to Grapple checks. Attacking someone with a light weapon who is grappling you should not be at -4.  None of that playtested though.</blockquote>
