I always thought that they made no sense, to be honest.
Monk is a Monk, not a Elemental Brawler, so I always felt like the Fist of stances, and to extension also the Riddle of actions, do not belong on Monk, as it is weird for Monk to be able to use actions that are more or less magic, in my opinion. It would make more sense to either tie all of these actions into Chakra, or replace these actions with new actions that would tie into Chakra, is how I felt about it.

That said, I do also have a Monk action concept, where-in I have made three WeaponSkill actions that replace the Fist of stances, while still to retain there original effects, albeit only in spirit, as this is not a copy-and-paste, these WeaponSkill actions have their own effects; that are also Chakra spenders, to make the magical aspects of the physical punches fit into the Monks' identity better, or at least from my perspective.
