(mainly to avoid giving away free headshots etc. "for nothing" and also to represent a slightly higher chance of missing, due to the unprecise, chaotic nature of the attack)

Exactly, there's no need to penalize the attack, sometimes the head is easier to hit because the opponent has ducked right onto your fist, it happens all the time.

This is why I like leaving that option of a random hit on the table, most of the time you don't use it, but in some instances it makes perfect sense to use it.
