It's interesting, but I had at one point postulated an idea for "losing" abilities in relation to the Saga System, and then decided not to use it at all after some good advice on the subject from Stephen. I do like your modifiers for "rustyness" however, Rory. In fact, I've found that often just using a bonus or penalty is often the simplest solution to this theoretical sort of problem that comes up rarely in play.
