Hey, another user here,

Just wanted to mention that the Qum whoring scene has always been the one thing that has always bugged me about that game. It just feels like it comes out of nowhere to me.

I mean, at that point everything led me to think that succubi and prostitution were a natural fit. Hell, everything you learn afterwards just reinforce that notion. Also, Qum seemed happy to have sex with the guards at Ferroholm and even wanted Simon to join in before he ever became an Incubus King (and Idoubt they knew each other much before that). So I figured even if she's reticent, she would probably not mind much whoring herself and hopefully have some fun. But then, BAM, horrible hate sex! How the hell?

And that was weird then, but now Sierra has doubled down on the penalities and Simon is treated like some monster who obviously knew that would happen and let it happen. Mechanically, the penalities make sense ; like Sool said that 5k can go a long way and you want to balance the decisions. But from an in-game perspective it really weirds me out.
