Oh, any class based around one of those scores will almost certianly have a better score - maybe even naturally.

I mean, I usually get at least one 16+ when making characters, and it'd be a bad decision to not put that into your spellcasting stat (because classes based around mental attributes are almost entirely spellcasters).

But adventurers are far above average. Perhaphs my usage of "you" was misleading. Your characters could be smarter / wiser / etc, and oftentimes are - if they focus on that stat, they should have the higher score.

My point was that your average person would be outclassed. It may seem odd, but it's generally accepted that people above Lv. 5 are fairly rare. The average soldier is a Lv 2 or Lv 3 fighters, if Ultimate Campaign is to be believed.
