And if you're playing in a game where Broadsword-40 is affordable, I don't see why the foes can't also have Broadsword-40. Or Explosive Fireball-40.
Anyway, the Basic Set on page 172 suggests the GM limit starting PC skills to somewhere between 20-25 to encourage a more realistic breadth of skill.

Realistic Navy SEALs and other SOF operators are 250 points or more, see
GURPS SEALs in Vietnam. Point value is not a measure of realism, it's how the points are spent. No remotely realistic character has 240 points in one skill and no other traits.
