That should be true of anything in HeroQuest.

Tough. Nobody is forcing the players to spend HP on other stuff.

Actualy, I think it does. Some players hoard HP anyway, while others prefer to 'live closer to the edge'. That's their choice. I've always been a bit unhappy with the Final Action rules as it seems too much of a fudge, but this is a nice idea. Note that NPCs with HP should be able to do this too.
As with any rules change, I'd put this to a vote with my players, but I think it's fair. The whole reason for HP is to let players character heroes have a chance to do things most ordinary people can't. Final Actions seem to me to be a good example of that.
