I put a premium on hitpoints for all my casters back in the day since all that matters usually is not dying.

And AC does nothing to mitigate spell damage.

AC now is significantly more valuable than any ‘back in the day’ anecdotes. It actually works. Those -15ac earrings are almost exclusively a rogue/bard item.
