Oh well.
This is another spot multiplicative multipliers would probably have mitigated the problem. I have no idea why neither GURPS nor Hero goes with a straightforward multiplier system, it avoids all kinds of edge case weirdness. And its not like either system's alternative actually produces simpler math.
