I agree that the two things are very different, but you can't make Easy skills take Optional Specialisations.

In real life, it should take very long to get rid of a hefty familitarity penalty and most soldiers don't bother if they don't particularly want to be good at civilian housekeeping.

You'd be pretty good at keeping your house shipshape and Bristol-fashion if necessary, right?

Note also that cleaning stuff of mud, without much in the ways of cleaning supplies, and doing so fast before inspection, isn't done at a TDM bonus. It's done at a penalty.

Dislike it all you want. I orginally had it optional, but put in 2 points after being specifically told so by the Viking Hat.

Regular rugby play is an official part of training.
