I think this should be fixed, because while it might not be a bug, it's certainly bad game mechanics.
It is too easy and too tempting to abuse this. Even if I wouldn't personally use it, the option of using it would be constantly there which would give me negative feeling. Like somebody said, they use it only if they get crappy loot. Thus, every time you get loot, you start wondering whether it's crappy enough? Should you reload?
No! Just thinking this way can lead to the Dark side.
Our objective for positive behavioral outcomes in the Divinity universe relies on the availability of choice. If choice is removed then it is no longer the same universe. Once you change the fundamental nature of the universe, you are unable to have anything to compare the new universe to. You will have removed the fulcrum of balance by which you could judge the state of the universe and thus you will also have have changed yourself. Without being able to judge if the universe or yourself have improved, you cannot then know the entirety of what might change. One fundamental change can lead to another. and another until the entire basis for our existence itself can unravel, allowing chaos to reign.
In short, what you are suggesting and what the OP of this thread is suggesting, is Sourcery.
