Nah, the relevant Core Skill would be Athletics, which covers not just all melee weapons, but dodging, sneaking about, and thrown weapons too. So the majority of munchkins would be better off keeping the core skill maxed out, since they presumably want to avoid attacks and occasionally throw hand grenades, pint glasses, pub ashtrays, and the dreaded bar-stool. Plus of course with sneaking about they get to fulfil their ninja fantasies too. No contest.
