It's not as bad as real life for sure (sans limitations such as medications for either).
A character that migrates from a range of Ace Rimmer and Arnold Rimmer or Marvin the Robot to C3PO isn't so bad (unrelated sheets, but the contrast is what I am speaking to). It's 20 points bad, but not a deal breaker or a game breaker normally. There are a lot of physical disads or stone cold bad stuff that is worse.
I would like to see a discussion of mitigation by other players, as there are plenty of skills to bring to bear. Often enough a "Oh jezz Rick" interaction is also unworkable. I am sure there are plenty of mitigations. Coward even has mitigations.
