Because if Str becomes Desirable, competively desirable to just ignoring it for this weapon as is, it can exist in healthy competition and variety with existing weapons.

If we change its scaling we homogenize it, you take away variety.


If its still the standout winner winner chicken dinner of katana's after a theoretical strength buff, then you can talk about changing it.

I'm pretty sure this is the only sword in the game without Strength in the scaling. That's not so much variety as it is inconsistency. If Strength gets good enough to compete with already necessary stats, a whole hell of a lot more than one sword would need stat changing to have variety for swords. This is all operating under the assumption that the stat is going to be changed in the first place, as well. It would make more sense to reel in the imbalance and consider reverting it if something comes of the stat change.
