It feels like you're making a big deal of nothing.
I played at the end of 2nd and got bored of 3.0/3.5 pretty quickly and moved onto other games, but you typically had a couple chaff lower level encounters, a few moderate encounters the same level as the party, and then the endboss of the dungeon/region was 2-3 HD above the party.
Sure, you could go find a goblin cave at level 10 but that would be a waste of time so we didn't do it. Same deal with an ancient dragon lair at low levels, such thing were miles from the starting towns.

Whats the point of polyamory if you're dating 3 of the same dude? I mean, isn't the point of a harem that you'd have some different personalities, body types, ethnicities etc to pick form?
