No other aspect of the game is really free from the effect of
stat weights, either. There's usually an optimal thing to choose,
and that's that. The advantage is that it's easier to understand
what to do.

The gearing up system (including gems) does provide meaningful
choices, and it's usually an economic choice, which seems pretty
interesting to me.

Plateaus (like the hit cap that some specs have to worry about)
could make it more challenging to choose the right gems. But I'm
not sure it really makes it more fun.
