How would stats work in the world after Apocalypse? Does Elder Tale have a DEX or AGI stat (the information on the races seems to imply that it does) and if so, wouldn't that stat be obsolete? Or would it somehow affect their attack speed, accuracy and movement even though the "players" are handling all those factors themselves?

I've been thinking about it since I started watching the anime (and am currently reading the novels) and I just can't get my mind around it. Supposing two characters have STR/END and STR/AGI builds respectively with equally placed stats, they can both lift a heavy weapon but even though they have the same strength, one would swing it slower? In real life, agility is based on so many factors including strength, and dexterity is another word for hand-eye coordination. So how does it work? Is it explained anywhere?
