Default Re: [Basic/Martial Arts] Feint applies to all attacks or just one?

Thanks to your post, I know understand that they actually do correspond to All out Attack (double: feint+attack) rather than more ordinary GURPS feints (feint during one turn and attack during the following one).
Or to Deceptive Attack or Set-Up Attack. I think Feint is a hard thing to relate to anything in real life, especially since Deceptive Attack was introduced.
