"As If": This was added to the FAQ (v.1.7, March 2020) and then amended (v.1.8, October 2020). You can read the October ruling on the ArkhamDB rules page here. (I'm adding a hyperlink rather than retyping the rules in case in future the ruling is changed or amended - at that point, the rules page will be updated and all ArkhamDB FAQ entries will link to the correct ruling.)

Q: If an effect refers to the "highest-cost card" in some game area, and that area contains solely costless cards (such as skill cards, or permanents), can one of those cards be the highest-cost card? Or does their lack of cost prevent them from being the highest-cost card? A: No; a card with no cost cannot be targeted as the “highest-cost card” in a game area.

Clarification from FFG regarding activating encounter cards from other players:
Question: An encounter card attached to a player card is not considered to be in your threat area, but can it still be activated by another player? I.e. is an encounter card attached to a player card considered to be "a scenario card that is in play at the same location as the investigator"? (Rules Reference "Activate Action" p. 4)
Answer: Yes! It may not be in your threat area, but it is still a treachery at the same location, and therefore may be triggered by any investigator at that location.
