Does anything break if the GM simply picks out one patron Arcanum and four targets?

I notice that if the GM simply determines targets randomly, there is a chance that only three, two, or even one world will be played in: which can be disappointing.

I also notice that if there are supposed to be obstacles equal to the total number of Approaches plus +33% to +50%, then it is possible for the PCs to simply solve obstacles using their Approaches and then use their Blessings for the rest, completely bypassing the Deck of Fate. Is this intentional?

Can the GM use the same shift more than once? Esther Marlowe's Predictable suggests that the GM can use the same shift more than once, but this becomes game-breaking with defensive shifts like Gloria Fitzroy's Financial Revenge or León Gallo's Game Face. Indeed, if the GM spams León Gallo's Game Face, he cannot actually be defeated.
