The only one I really don’t like is the expiration date on skills bought from the terminally ill. I’ll agree that someone who is dying of natural causes doesn’t have years of life to give, but if you buy a car from a manufacturer and then the manufacturer goes under, the car doesn’t vanish. It also creates a bizarre medical research angle of Merchant transactions, as it is an attunement-robbing taboo for the Merchant to be taken advantage of in a deal; every deal would therefore be contingent on an exhaustive health check on all parties. Also, given medical technology, it’s hard to know what a terminal illness is, outside of pretty narrow parameters.

I dispute the coherence of the “non-composite” rule – all skills we have are composites assembled out of different experiences, teaching environments, etc. I do like the 20 point rule, though.

I do like the “you have to be healthy to sell health” clause, the max stat = donor, the species specific transfer of health or life, and the requirement for informed consent.
