I think FASA had to make some choices taht conflict with fictional logic
to make the game work. A TCG is not an RPG and so they have to simplify.
This leads to seemingly illogical rules and situations like those you
mention above. However, it also keeps the game at a level that's fun
without being too convoluted. >>
Pg 33 of the rule book says you cannot swap or remove cyberware once it is
deployed. It's not in the FAQ because it states it clearly in the rule book.
