I haven’t played Runequest. It’s been on the list for ages, though.

I’m actually not even that big a fan of D&D specifically; most of my recent games have been PF2e, which has a lot more of a LEGO set feel with how you build characters and I think can avoid some of the issues you’re talking about. But I’m always up for trying new systems when I get the chance. In fairness, that’s rare.

With you 100% on that last line.
