Feats are an optional rule, like piety and sanity. They are not a part of the game unless the DM makes them a part of it.Oh, and in case anyone thinks that there are no mental mechanics in D&D, I assume that you remove the Leadership feat from play right? After all, there's a non-magical mind control effect right there that carries mechanical implications.
I can choose not to have my resolve bolstered if I want to. It only affects friendly creatures and I can opt not to be friendly for it. If it could affect anyone regardless, then you'd have a point.And, I assume that you also ban Battlemasters as well right? After all, that character might take the Rally maneuver and that's a mental effect right there.
