Number of dice rolled and time taken to add it up.
Damage also hasn't scaled proportionally. Eg an Ogre has triple the HP but low level PCs don't deal triple damage.v

Have you looked into Pathfinder 2nd edition?

Yes played the playtest and borrowed the rule book off one of my players.
Whole system left us cold.

I ran it for two years before I realized it wasn’t for me, and our group felt the same.

It's one of the reasons why in 3e a running joke was "friends don't let friends specialise in evocation". The hit point bloat was so high that it made damaging spells less useful than pre-3e.

Have you looked at Dragonbane? I was in a rut; I couldn't find a fantasy game to my liking and couldn't play TSR D&D either. Dragonbane turned out to be THE game I wanted. It's simpler, gritty and modern. Character progression is slow and combat remains dangerous even for advanced characters.

It wasn't as bad as tgat low but yeah not as good as 3.0 or 2E. Blasting went from S tier to B.
Now it's C tier imho. Very situational.

Same. I like a lot of 2E for example but it's on the AD&D chassis (prefer B/X).
Advanced B/X
