I believe this quote about Rapid Strike makes it pretty clear.

It is the only place in the rules I can find such a restriction. Absent the above quote, I would confidently assume no restrictions on Rapid Strike beyond the usual, e.g. weapon must be ready, etc.

Every edition of GURPS will involve those decisions because that's a core design pillar of GURPS. How much you invest in seeking out options is up to you, though.
