With 0 HT to "roll" to recover, if it is made permanent, well... You'd never recover.
I believe you always get a recovery roll, regardless of how low your effective score is, and always succeed - indeed, critically succeed - on a 3 or 4. So even if you are rolling against something ridiculous like an effective score of -100, you have a ~2% chance to recover each time a roll would normally be allowed (similarly, if you're rolling against an effective score of 100, a 17 still fails and an 18 still critically fails).
