Fair, the "usual" bit is where I'm looking for clarification for building my own techniques.
But it seems like there's general agreement that the exception is for "stabbing through the eye as easily as the torso would just be too good", and I definitely agree there. So I will assume that the general rule of "max = skill" is the case for any custom techniques, aside from eye-stabbing.
