That I actually find unfair - if Wu Han goes from 10 to 3 P-Points in
Act One after an encounter with the PCs, having him back at 10 PP
when they meet him again in Act Two means all the effort the PCs put
into reducing his PP total in the preceeding Act was for nothing. And
from the PC point of view, if they only earned 1-3 P-Points at the end
of the previous Act, why does Wu Han rate earning 7 PP at the end of
the previous Act?

Whilst I agree with you that it is unfair, I find I do give the villians more and more PP than the characters if they make it away in one act only to return another later act. 

No where does it say it has to be fair. 

Though I rate a villian to be a challenge to the players, so in one aspect it may very well be fair. If (using your example) Wu Han only has 3, or say 5 PP in Act Two, and the PCs are able to roll over on him because of it. Thus little or no challenge, then I would consider that to be unfair to the players. They have little challenge in the second act. 

This is just my opinion on it. I don't use the suggestions in the rules when it comes to this because the experienced players I have in my game would literally roll over very powerful villians. So I have to change tactics as a GM running villians to present an ample challenge to them.

So while I agree it is unfair in numbers and how villians might get more PP between acts or even meetings, in due fairness to the challenge the game presents to the players, I am forced to disagree with your point of view.
