Also, they could easily have restricted Stunning Strike to unarmed attacks.  IRL, they do both. Polearms weren’t just used in formations. They were also used by duelists, by people wanting to unseat cavalry, and by Kung fu and other martial arts traditions. Monks can already do most of that. Polearm master works with a spear. They could easily have included a polearm that lacks the Heavy property, making the PAM+GWM combo not fully functional with it. And it’s really silly that you can’t scale the whip. Why? Surely rope darts and spike chains are Monk weapons. Spiked Chain is a dnd classic. I went ahead and added it as basically a whip with versatile (d6), that is a monk weapon.</blockquote>
