Some Idea to solve that

Splitting Intelligence into two seperate attributes:

->Perception(with no race having modifiers)
used for:
reaction
combatpool
astralcombatpool
and naturaly perception tests

->Intelligence
used for:
skills (those depending on old Intelligence)
spell pool
hacking pool

there are three options to generate those stats
1. for a lowerpowered campaign:
just distribute your points between 7 attributes instead of 6

2. you get 3 extra points to distribute (30 -> 33)

3. divide your points by 6 and multiply by 7 (rounded down)
eg 35 instead of 30 for A

your only problem with this is you have to make new sheets,...;-)
