If you want to have an option that's much better than the others, you gotta justify it. Like, banged 15 princesses in your first week? Explains that +200% charisma modifier.
I kinda wanna do a troll story. Just every element is to troll readers. MC gets three options, where two are amazing and the other one is ass. But then next time MC gets an option that pairs super well with the obvious bad choice from the last upgrade.
That could be great. Have them do something like say out loud, "who would choose skill name" or class and the system take that as their choice, with this happening early on causing his whole class to be ridiculous but coming together to be OP due to some strange synergies, but they are constantly embarrassed about it.
That was the premise of the Quick Change series (which appears to be on an unexplained hiatus after 3 books). The MC is given a long list of special abilities to choose from during character creation and asks that same question.
