One interpretation has already been mentioned: that it has to do with the Mastakos myth in KoS, p.71-2.
I just found another one: Glorantha, p.244, which says that the planet Uleria rises again in the east immediately after it has set in the west... "But the Orlanthi claimed this planet to be Mastakos, their god of motion, and could duplicate to a lesser degree his Great Leap from west to east."
Still, I agree that one should be able to interpret the rules without such fact-finding expeditions...

Well it has and it hasn't. "Augmentation" is in fact used both ways at different times (even on p.133!). Looks like a change was started but not implemented fully.

Yes and yes. :-) A compromise is to give it might equal to the shamans best mundane or magical ability. This would exclude relationships and personality traits.
