It is blanket because I'm just against the idea in general, and don't really support any part of it.

No thief has to take those skills, but they can be niche and useful (a battlerager thief with climb).

I'm not afraid of OP thieves. I just don't think the class is MEANT to be on par with all other classes AND have the ability to empty your inventory without killing you. It's a thief, not an assassin, or a warrior, etc. Not all classes are supposed to be solo-murder-machines. Some folks still manage to make annoyingly deathful thieves (I am not one of them), so it's definitely doable.

It has nothing to do with worry, and everything to do with how I think thieves should work as a class.

BUT I do think emptying someone's inventory without killing them is 'OP' (not in any way I'd want changed). It's a pretty sweet thing to be able to do.

I don't think thieves need an even bigger range of tactics for less work.
