Interkingdom Anthropology at work...

A "point of honor" is when one fighter gains an advantage over his
opponent, then discards it. For example, if he takes his opponent's arm,
then throws away his own shield. In some areas, the herald or marshal will
specifically announce these actions. They're also known as "acts of chivalry".

The debate is over whether or not they *should* be announced.
