But but but the 'bonus' thing is only applied (so far) when a quality is tested - the first increase is the standard variable one (based on difficulty), the second one is a fixed amount (a bonus). Theoretically that second one could be negative, but it would be pretty bizarre. (The Duchess double-drop is a special case that looks fine as is).

So the standard one is

Watchful is increasing...

a fixed modifier is

Watchful is increasing... (2 CP)

and the two combined are

Watchful is increasing... (+2 bonus CPs)

I love that we have finally have a quorum of editors who are picky enough to have a debate over this. ('Picky' is the polite term).
