My guess is that this is probably because most people don't brag about 
being harrowed the way gunfighters would... You start convincing people 
you returned from the grave due to the manitou you time-share your body 
with, and everything goes to hell.

Also, keep in mind that Pinnacle seems to try to avoid making their 
splatbooks too cookie-cutter. I'm more fiamilar with the Classic 
Deadlands side of the house, but Smith & Robards (the first Mad 
Scientist book) doesn't try to take the same format as Law Dogs, for 
example. The topics are just to different. As a player of at least one 
White Wolf game, I'm glad to see this difference. The tribebooks for 
Werewolf seem to blur together sometime because they all use the exact 
same format.
