Ok, so Karate and Aikido are martial arts that don't use weapons (as far as I know). However, they both give bonuses for "Full Parry". Shouldn't there be a difference between "Full Parry" (when you have a weapon to parry with) and "Full Block" (when unarmed)? The BBB states that Full Parry can be used both unarmed or with a weapon. Was it the intent to make karate martial artists better at parrying with a sword? It seems a bit weird to me.

Also, does the bonus to "melee block" apply when you use "Full Parry" unarmed? Or does it apply only to regular melee block defense, but not to Full Parry? I find the language used confusing as it doesn't seem to mean the same thing all the time.
