My point of benefit is that they should actually have times where they get to duel people that arent always master swordsman because everyone else is too chicken and has nothing to lose from not accepting. So to encourage duels to be accepted, honor is gave to the winner of the duel and if you dont accept a duel then you lose honor because thats what duels are supposed to be about (you insult me so I want a duel until first blood for example). To also encourage duels, death duels can be changed to first blood duels. To stop people from exploiting it perhaps have a max amount of honor that can be gained or a timer of once a month or some other number that they actually get honor from duels.
