Would Mind Block & Suggest fall under that option?

Re: AD&D Psionics conversion to GURPS
Danger Sense and things like Intuition are Advantages/Powers not Skills. Mind Block is very explicitly non-psionic. Suggest and the other Enthrallment Skills might be your borderline cases.

Re: AD&D Psionics conversion to GURPS
Thanks Fred. Apparently I'm trying to juggle too many balls and made a mistake.

As far as advantages go, GURPS Psionics calls out two specifically, under Precognition default use (p. P14), "This works the same as the Danger Sense advantage because it is the same. If you have Danger Sense, you are an ESPer with Power 5 and no training." and under Emotion Sense default use (p. P21) "This works exactly like the Empathy advantage because they're the same thing! You are a psi. The 15 points you spent for Empathy make you a Telepath (probably with Power 3 and no training.)" |

In my game if the GM can use something, it's potentially available to the players. The inverse is true, also. Psis are super rare in my world but any justification to add a few new monsters is always good. No huge big bads but something unknown and unexpected.
