Why is Broad-Minded a Quirk?

[carllarson]

You do realize that by this interpretation, Honesty should be an advantage, if you play your character per the disadvantage.

If you have Honesty, and never break from its philosophy, you never incur the negatives, and always benefit from +2 reaction from anyone who knows your philosophy.

Hmm, -10cp for taking the advantage I want to play (so, no sweat off my nose, I want to play within the alleged restrictions), plus the reaction bonus (played right, +2 to a large group, given I may be a truly social virtuoso with appropriate social advantages to widen my audience).

Applied to Broad-Minded; a restriction on my play, which I believe is beneficial (openmindedness can open doors, and I may get in fewer fights if others give me the benefit of the doubt as I do them) so will play consistently (which means again, no sweat off my nose), that gives me 1cp. So I can buy Highheeled Hurt, in case they get grabby and I need to protect myself.

Goddess this is so simple. A quirk is a minor disadvantage because it limits your choices in roleplaying. Period. Broad-minded, in any interpretation, limits your choices. Add the appropriate Latin homily ending.
