>>So let's say I have 2HE as my main weapon. I have power, the stats for speed, and the ability to strike from pole range. Why would I backtrain another melee weapon? If I felt another melee weapon was better, I would have just trained it from the get go.

I think somewhere in this we're missing a more fundamental question.

If you don't want to backtrain another weapon for the functionality of using another weapon, why should we be so cruel as to dangle a carrot in front of you to compel you to do it anyway?

>>Why is it a problem if someone trained crazy things for TDPs?

While it's not a problem specifically with 'training crazy things for TDPs,' TDP generation is currently out of control. There are other ways to address the issue, and many of them were contemplated, but alternatives tend to involve making TDPs functionally worthless.
