Well, plus it doesn't make any sense. I mean, "I just bought this book on swashbucklers, so I feel entitled to play one!" "But this is a military sci-fi game, full of alien space-snipers that'll swiss-cheese a swashbuckler from a mile away!" "ENTITLED TO PLAY ONE!" "...okay..."

That said, I kinda wonder now is DF: Sages and DF: Ninja and DF: Power-Ups were actually designed with players in mind. A player could just buy DF: Ninja and then ask to have one dropped into a DF game.
