-75 is also an excessively high number for disadvantgaes. I know it's
in the rules, but more than -50 or so starts getting silly.

-75 points in straight disadvantages is probably a bit excessive (at least in a realistic game), but -75 points in negative point traits isn't really that bad. In 4e I think they assumed that most people would be buying down at least one attribute or sub-attribute. Even in 3e many people took lots of negative point traits which didn't count against the disad limit - such as lowered Attributes and the disadvantages included in Racial Templates. They just changed the way attributes are counted against the disad limit (they always do in 4e, where as in 3e they sometimes did, sometimes didn't).
