I didn't read Benn's original post closely enough, I thought he said
that two PP came off of each award until it's paid off, not that you
only get two PP per award with the rest going to pay it off. In which
case yes, it's not going to encourage people to pick up Knacks because
that could be severely penalizing for quite some time on a level 2 or 3
Knack.
