In D&D 3rd Edition, Clerics were overpowered… they could function as healbots, but they could also do lots of other things almost as good as the dedicated class without sacrificing the ability to play healer as well.
For all Murphy knows, Cleric could be the overpowered class here, too.
My favorite video games are team-based RPGs, where each Core Party Member can be customized individually. I spent hours pulling sliders and scrolling through menus: from Eye Color to Forehead Width, from War Scars to Eye Shadow. If the game let you pick Starting Classes, I’d build one character of each Class and write each a backstory before picking a favorite.
Although Murphy tries to min-max at times, he plays primarily for aesthetics. You and I, being rationalist Munchkins, might find this difficult to understand.

They could do lots of other things better than the dedicated class, in fact (hence the CoDzilla, etc.).
