I gather from your Actual Play report that narration bonuses are meant to be given out routinely, but even then it still seems like the odds would be against you most of the time unless you have a Virtue of 6 or 7. Is there something I'm missing?

Yes. Most actions are simply accepted as so, by fiat. A modifier of 0 is for a difficult (i.e., uncertain) task.
