I'm wondering if anyone had a few theories as to why enhanced articulation was limited to only physical skills with a physical attribute link, and not combat skills? It seems as if a system designed to make the user more coordinated would help with melee combat just as much as it helps climbing or running. Smoother movements are also more useful for ranged combat, albeit to a lesser degree.

It just seems odd to me, particularly given the price.

[EDIT] Topic title SHOULD be "Why IS Enhanced Articulation limited?". Brain fart. [/EDIT]
