Thanks for checking! In the comments on the deep cuts itch page, John said that, for simplicity, players familiar with Vanilla deep cuts can just use 2 Stress as a devil's bargain to improve a roll. For simplicity, I just stated it directly in my cheatsheet. 

My writing choices were to make things EASY for brand new players. Which required me to simplify things a bit. I don't think I over-simplified too much, but if you feel I did, please push back.

Yeah, I get it. But to me, it feels like it strays a bit from what Deep Cuts is going for, especially with how flexible things like assisting and devil’s bargains are meant to be.

Totally get wanting to keep it accessible, but I think in this case the simplifications might give the wrong impression about how the mechanics work. Just a thought.
