Yeah, I meant

instead of: Spend 15 XP, choose to increase stats or buy powers.

Do: Spend 15 XP, increase stats and buy powers.

Conceptually the same idea as fixing benies. You know the problem where the game does “use this benie for a cool thing, or horde it for XP” and the easy fix is “use this benie for a cool thing and then spend it as XP”

Why make players choose between getting better vs. getting cooler.
