There is nothing stopping narrative fiat from being applied to whatever circumstance the Gm decides.Also, again spot on, the issue can be addressed Gm to player by asking them to change their choices made going forward or adjust them etc. Asking the player to limit his choices to options allowed that make sense is definitely one way to resolve RAW system sense hiccups, to be sure. i can't think of any system which would not be better if players just chose to not do things it allows that are off. Would certainly cut down on errata. Sage Advice would have days off, time to shower.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":-)" title="Smile    :-)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":-)" />But as some prefer more systemic approaches, thanks for the call back that you prefer option #1.</blockquote>
