Another way of looking at this is that the ability to override such limits marks the boundary of supernatural means of persuasion. Such means might be
presented as "simply being very good at mundane persuasion" and look like them in action, but aren't plausible as such. Of course, if the guard has some disadvantage that can be exploited, you can get further by mundane means.
