I did actually explain exactly that and why I did it in the note just after the point cost.

Emphasis added.

To explain in somewhat more detail: this is afflicting the disadvantageous version of Shadow Form, which turns Can Carry Objects into a limitation on it, making it cost less — while I feel it should not cost less to take both the victim and their equipment out of the game!
