There's also the corollary going the other direction: "If it
does limit you, it
is worth points."
This doesn't come up often as a concern, but I'd like to think it's a principle of modern GURPS. I refer specifically to a minor grumble I had about older books occasionally slapping PC races with real limitations but under the Taboo Traits label. "You can't swim – which means that, unaided, you sink and die in any pool, lake, river, moat, dungeon cistern, or 3/4 of the Earth's surface. Taboo Trait, 0 points, try to stay out of the water."
Not a fan of that. : )
