You seem to be assuming that isn't true. And maybe you are correct, but if so I think you should do some intentional parses to compare.

Get to max str with zero + ATK items and parse a bit to establish a max attack and then do it again with avatar and/or with +ATK items. And then post the results so we can see exactly what is happening. If it does go up with + ATK items on then try it with +10, +20, +30, +40 gear to see if it stops going up.

The next thing to do would be to get well below max str and only use +ATK items and compare the same low strength with and w/o + ATK items. This would side-step your theory about a damage cap since the low str would keep you under it.
I already did intentional parses. I had 225 STR and +0 ATK vs 225 STR and +40ish ATK. Without ATK I hit for up to 124, with +40ish ATK I hit for up to 132. This is with a 25 damage weapon https://wiki.project1999.com/Eye_of_the_Rigtorgn . I haven't hit the damage cap yet with my Shadowknight, only my Shaman.
