Returning to IAWA and Shocks. I have played much more IAWA than Shock, so maybe I am missing some fundamental aspect of Shock play, but I see these problems as basically different for another reason: in Shock's case, the player have to ignore a specific rule (in the use of Minutiae) to remove that right-ward arrow. Maybe the game encourage them doing it, maybe that rule is not pushed enough in the game text, I don't know, but it's there.
In IAWA's case, that right-ward arrow require something from the GM that it is not spelled clearly anywhere in the game text. It could be even argued that the game text imply that the GM should do another thing instead...
