The rules under "Winning" say nothing about Objects being reset, only Scores.
My argument is that Scores are defined to be collections of Points, Debts are
also collections of Points, and thus Debts are Scores and should be reset.

Plus, it makes life so much easier if we don't start with miscellaneous debts
to deal with.
