A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.
Ranged Attacks may not target cards in this unit.
Battle: Choose your performing unbowed Fire or Tattooed Personality: Ranged 3 Attack with +1 strength for each Fire token on your Personality. Give your Personality a +1F Fire token.
Can Breath of the Heavens be played in order to gain the +1F token if the only opposing personality is Matsu Yuuto? I thought the answer was an obvious yes, but THIS RULING has me a little uncertain now. Can Rules Team please clarify a bit?

Sorry, I though my second answer in your link made it clear what portion of the first answer was reversed.
Ranged Attack targeting is never required (that bit didn't change) and always optional (that bit did).
The answer to your question was and still is "yes".
