The thing that annoys me about cliomancy is more from a game-balance perspective than anything else. Basically, the sole big drawback to cliomancy is the existence of other cliomancers. Quite apart from raising the question "why didn't Dugan Forsythe keep it to himself and get several major charges a day for the rest of his life?" (which for all I know may be explained in Hush Hush), it ties individual GM's hands (if I want cliomancy to be balanced, I have to make it common, if Iwant it to be rare, it ends up insanely powerful).
Just my 2 pennies/cents/euros/whatever
