Yeah, 18 +2 racial for 20 is nice for some specific characters, but it's not necessary for anyone, and you're not a burden without it. 18 can often be better, because of how many extra points you spend getting to 20.

Your secondary defenses, skill bonuses, stat, etc also matters. Even with a +primary/+secondary stat bonus race, with an 18 (20) primary and 14 (16) secondary, you have, what, 11 CON if your secondary isn't CON?

20 INT wizards are boss. 20 DEX rogues... maybe. For everyone? No way.
