This is just for the character sheet. It's not on the tabs in the UI. Those are all self-contained. And during character creation, some of these fields will be changing quite a bit. Adding points to skills, then maybe changing your mind and taking them away to put them somewhere else; or adding specialties and arranging points between them, then maybe changing your mind and removing them or changing points between them, etc.
I still feel like there will be more recalculation during character creation than if I just left these scripts on the character sheet.
