To me Bards are all about using charisma to avoid fights, or create distractions while the rest of the party does the important work.
But if you play a sorcerer, you can have charisma for when you want to avoid fights and fireballs for when you don't!
A dex based bard with two levels in paladin is easily the most powerful build in this game.
But if you're a lore bard, you get both fireball AND eldritch blast for when you don't want to avoid fights.
