This is because the force being pulled back is a handle to the side of the injury. A spear or sword is pulled back directly behind the injury, so they come out just fine.

Assuming you and your target remain exactly face to face with each other, and the Thrust was exactly straight as well.
If you thrust a spear into someone in combat it's just as likely they'll move or you'll move removing the straight line ease of removal.
I'd make it a factor of damage rolled, the thing is since Sw Imp is likely to be more than Thr Imp anyway you'll still have a harder time removing a Sw Imp weapons as a Thr Imp. You just won't have the current situation where if just catch you for 1 point of daamge with a Sw Imp weapon, I get it stuck but can impale you with spear for 10 points of damage and not risk getting stuck
