Creates a bit of anti-synergy with race/lineage and feat options that also provide bonus actions.Deflect Attacks is a bit overrated: It's a single reaction (meaning no opportunity attacks), that works on a single attack.Uncanny Metabolism helps a bit with the problem of tables not taking a short rest. Which should be lessened now that more classes have a reason to short rest.Addle should be a weapon mastery property. In fact, why not allow monks to put weapon masteries on their unarmed strikes in general? The mechanics are halfway there already. Make it consistent across the classes for ease of learning the system, and just full tilt into the Monk being the "Complex Martial" that people are clamoring for.Heck, I don't see any problem with allowing monks to just use weapons and light armor already, it's kind of an inaccurate assumption to make them go around without anyway. Martial artists use weapons and armor all the time.</blockquote>
