 that if a syker power fails the syker DOESN'T pay strain. So effectively
 they can just keep trying until they get it right with no ill effects

You're right, if the power fails, the syker doesn't pay the Strain. The syker 
can basically try over and over again until he gets it right. Although as a 
Marshal I would rule that if he ever went bust on a roll, that wound cannot 
be healed by magical means.
