It's like that saying goes. "Players will optimize the fun out of a game." Game studios spend many, many man hours on just this one aspect of development. It's the reason Skyrim's systems were fewer and simpler than Oblivion and Morrowind. I believe Todd Howard himself said they were trying to get away from all the spreadsheet inducing aspects of their games.

What they fail to realize is that optimizing and spreadsheets are fun for some people
