However, if you go by the p99 monk wiki BIS-list with Gharn's and FoN and add resist-items like shawl of protection and VP robe you're still only 3 STA away from capped. There are a number of sidegrades you could swap in to max out those 3 STA or you could just self-buff.
So I'll maintain that at at the VERY end of the line STA stops to mattering for anything but some heavy resist-set wearing raid puller where it still probably will never matter. I'd personally rather be the heaviest solo hitter one can be. But like you say, DEX isn't exactly that useful either and even AGI could possibly be the best stat at that point.
But in any realistic setting, yeah STA is marginally better unless maybe you have a proc weapon.
