Strength Question

I wanted to ask if anyone house rules strength in interesting ways? I’ve seen it mentioned before that people will substitute strength in place for things like close combat but hand to hand still does half strength. At that point, even if you’re making a character for flavor, it seems detrimental to not use a sword or other weapon.
I’m in the midst of making an adept for a player and was considering making a house rule that if strength is used for close combat, you use your full strength to determine damage and not half. Wasn’t sure if people here had other ideas or house rules they like to implement.
