The Problems with Deity's Favored Weapon: Fist

There are a half dozen deities in Pathfinder that have favored weapon "fist." Of those, two offer alternative options.

Since many of the abilities that reference a deity's favored weapon make the assumption that they are, in fact weapons, this creates a problematic disconnect since fists are NOT weapons at all.

What can be done to emeliorate this problem, so that abilities like an Avenger's Zealous Inevitably or anything using the term "wielding" function as intended?

Shouldn't all such deities be errata to provide alternative weapon options? As written faithful of "the way of the fist" are decidedly weaker than their weapon wielding kin which makes playing what would otherwise have been a cool concept feel really bad.
