Because when you leave holes in the system, players will drive

I do. But it must be done within the context of this system. They
can make up any rules they want and then try to enforce them. The
ones that make up dumbass rules will be deposed quickly.

This probably answers all of your questions best. One of the
greatest benefits of this system, and it's the one trait that
ensures it can persist, is that it doesn't require any
"role-playing", whatever that means.
If it isn't coded, it doesn't exist. Roleplayed stuff is the worst.
No one will agree as to what "good" role-playing is. You'll notice
that I don't try to outline it, either. You can role-play anything
you want in my system, but you can't "role-play" around the
mechanics, therefore 1 jackass (or 3 socializer twits who can't keep
from whining that one in their group isn't role-playing something
right) can't choose to derail the entire system.
Thanks,
