Instead of Max Stats, try a "Quality of Life" edit: 500 carry weight, 200 stimpaks, and a single unique weapon (The Terrible Shotgun). This enhances the game without destroying it.
Want to switch from a smoothskin to a Ghoul? You cannot in vanilla, but the save editor lets you change the "Race" variable. (Warning: This can break dialogue animations.)
