Seriously?
20 points in STA = less then 1 hit at lvl 50' worth of hp...
It just does not scale.
If you have no STR to wear bronze armor into your 30's your gonna suck as a plate glass.
Its a viable route for a rogue, i doubt people parse DPS logs here for xp groups and will shun you if your missing some STR, also rogue gear is a hell of a lot lighter for tanks...
STR is important for a "New Char/first char" because without plat to get any gear your gonna suck, and unless you wasn't to spend more time camping items then xping to get to 50 when you can get decent gear easily then your kinda gonna use whatever you come by which is gonna be almost nothing.
Anyway, go level a war on a pvp server with item loot then tell me what stats you think are important =)
I ended up soloing a troll war to 50 more or less and when he grouped he grouped naked at lvl 40+ unless it was a planar raid. It didn't really matter what my stats would have been if i was a shorty race i woulda picked STR so i could carry more bags and keep my shit from getting looted
