Jumping in here to clarify one thing. A stamina drain is considered to be a drawback, so if your sword is more tiring to use (or even just hold), it will be a stronger weapon (maybe it hits harder, maybe it's easier and quicker to swing than it "should" be, you could use it to justify one of these things in your move if you wanted). Thus, it's not just "flavour". It won't make the weapon all-powerful or anything, but it can give you an edge at the cost of fatigue.
That said, outside of mechanics, it does create the interesting narrative for fights of "this sword is draining my energy, I've got to get this over with quickly".
