Nice post! Interesting info, and as far as I know, no one posted this before.
I think a lot of us here didn't have to think about it because we already had retroactive skill points when we got the last update, but based on the info and choices you listed, I would also go with A.
Not just because of the extra benefit of gaining 1 HP every level up, but also because having 11 AP doesn't really help, unless you also have at least 1 level of Cleave.
My only problem would be with having the patience to not use a skill point right away, at level 4. If I were to start a new game, knowing what I know now, I might use that 1st skill point for Quick Learner, and still not start Increased Fortitude until level 8. I didn't use it until level 80 on my main build and its still been helpful, although I admit to having to still use regular HP increases from level ups to get to a comfortable amount of HP for the Iqhan caves.
If the requirement for level 2 of Combat Speed is to be at level 30, then its not really worth getting level 1 of combat speed until you hit level 28 (so that you can use the skill point at level 32 for the 2nd Combat Speed). You could use the skill points from level 12, 16 & 20 to get Cleave though so that you'd get a benefit of level 1 Combat Speed between 28 and 32, and kill mobs of small rabid dogs and forest snakes.
