I am sure I have made up rules for GURPS (and other RPGs). Thats not to say it doesn't have comprehensive rules

Sorry, it always confuses me when people use that turn of phrase. "The exception that proves the rule" because that's exactly the opposite of what an exception does to a rule. People who say that also never offer an example of how it proves the rule. So if you could please be so kind and humor me? I've always wanted to ask someone who says that to explain, so now I am.
