The way around this is to make certain tasks harder.

In HeroQuest terms:
Look through underwear or look through a normal wall - resistance 14.
Look through a lead-lined box - resistance 10M.
Look through something far away 20M
Look through several walls at once 20M
Search a building from outside and read something stored in a cupboard 20M2

or whatever.

In BRP terms, you'd assign a penalty depending on how difficult the task was.

Look through underwear or look through a normal wall -0%
Look through a lead-lined box -40%
Look through something far away -40%
Look through several walls at once -60%
Search a building from outside and read something stored in a cupboard -100%
