After 8 years I can play in SR one more time(as a player! Not GMing! At last :D )
Yesterday we start to generate our characters. Everything was good until I have to spend skill points. And then it starts...
40 points total
6 skill
6 skill
6 skill
6 skill
6 skill
4 skill

I hate to play one-shoters. I always plan to play my character for more than one adventure. So, I always think, what will I do with my good Karma.
I hate this (part in SR character generation) ! If I spend starting skill points in other way, I will loose many of Karma points to achieve it during a play.(good karma for 3 skills on level 2 : 15 karma points. One skill with rating 6: 41 good karma!!!)
And BECKs veriotion has the same flaw.

Why nobody In place of Karma (and Attribute) points from character generation gave a pool of good Karma to spend on starting skills (and attributes).
That would solve the problem of involuntary, reasonable munchkinism
