Why is Broad-Minded a Quirk?

Well...broad minded doesn't give you any social skills, so you don't magically get the ability to get along with strangers...just in the same way that Lecherous doesn't actually give you the Sex Appeal skill. And you do react towards strangers out of reflex, that reflex is: "Ooo Shiny" and some strangers may be offended by your mild fetishization of them. So disregarding the rest of society which may disapprove of your non-discriminatory ways, even the people you think are "so cool because they are different, can I touch your hair" may react not so well.
