I'd agree that it should be a zero-point Feature, albeit one that invites the player to add related Advantages or Disadvantages to the character sheet, depending on the backstory.

Something like this isn't all that uncommon for self-willed or tempting artifacts; think of Bilbo slipping the Ring back into his pocket after telling Gandalf that he'll leave it to Frodo. (Of course, the Ring also has a nasty habit of becoming un-sticky at the worst possible times -- right, Isildur?)
