Heh, I can see this play out on an episode of CSI:
Medical Examiner: "We have a victim of a knifing. Two stab wounds to the chest with a blade approximately 6 inches in length. Time of death 0800 hours."
CSI: "But that's impossible! That's the size of a dagger. Daggers only do 1d4 damage! Clearly ineffective!"
Medical Examiner: "Maybe against your standard body guard, but this guy was breaking and entering at the time of the assault."
CSI: "So..."
Medical Examiner: "So...Thieves generally have fewer hit points than Fighters."
CSI: "Ah! Case closed."
