It's easy to override these variables... in fact just as Valve did for HL1... checkout one of the various gamerules.cpp files.
I think you'll find that in multiplay_gamerules.cpp Valve forced various values after they were read in from the script file. So it really shouldn't be that difficult.
If memory server me right it's in: RefreshSkillData or something very similar.

Sure, if you're paranoid it's nice to hide things in the DLL... But I'd say that at release-time, packing them into a GCF is good enough. A large proportion of your user base either doesn't know how to change those script files, or quite frankly doesn't care... We're not all cheaters ;)

But wouldn't it be safer to not let the users play with this stuff, hide it in the code?(I haven't modded HL2 yet, so I don't know exactly how the txt files work)
