Default Unlimited Use

OK, there is the very usefull limitation of limited use, allowing to get an advantage from "always" down to "once per day" for -40% and even to once per week = once per session for a further -35%. So for -75% you go from "always" to "once per session".

But what about the other way around? How to enhance advantages that are "once per session per level" to "once per day" or even "always"?

The purely mathematical opposite of the -75% for sure is to small, being +300% only.

But +600% to get it from once a week/session to once a day seems an logical. And another +1000% to get it from once a day to 11 times a day, which is equivalent to "always" is also logical.

On the other hand, imagine a Wild Talent (Reliable 10 +50%, Retention +25%, Unlimited Use 16 +1600%) for the "low" price of 355 CP. You could use any skill in existence whenever you want at Attribute+10, and even learn it straight away. Overpowered?

What do you think, how to use such an "Unlimited Use" enhancement, and what cost should it have?
