I understand RS ALWAYS takes good care of the skillers, but what if there is a pure combater? Obviously "Escape" & "Surge" are very useful combat skills which introduce tactics and placement during combat. By removing combat skill requirement but only focus on agility level, so your intention is that, "Escape" & "Surge" are mainly for skilling right?

You are just putting the cart before the horse.

It probably wasn't the most elegant solution to that, since players lost access to those abilities when their agility level isn't sufficient (or can't ever get sufficient as it is for free players). It probably would have been better when a sufficient agility level would allow you to ignore the magic/ranged requirement of said abilities (or you can unlock it either way). Dive for that matter was much better solved, but I expect they'll fix it to be unlockable either with agility or magic/ranged. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

Hardly any concern as there will never be "pure combaters". Ultimate combat necessitates Herblore, Summoning, Archaeology among other non-combat specific skills.
