TNE Psionics

Hello Travellers,

here is one of the usual simple question :) I have:

In the TNE-Rulebook the rules for psionic regeneration states:

"Though the psionics treats himself he has to overcome his own willpower rating
 to do so. The willpower rating is subconscious and can not be suspended by the
 psionic."
(not precisely, but I don't have the book with me)

Okay, nice statement, but willpower is a skill, and as such can be developed.
And development is not subconscious. So why can't I lower my willpower asset
by my willpower skill?

Example:
Dodo has a Willpower skill of 4 and Int 8 => Willpower asset=12
Dodo is a psionic using regeneration. Using the rules above, you have to
overcome a Willpower asset of 12.

Using my rule above, he has to overcome a willpower of 8, his Int rating,
which is indeed subconscious.

Waiting for suggestions,
Juergen
