    Skill is not a quantity, nor is it quantifiable, and your further objection embodies a straw man attack.

        Does an apprentice in a trade have more skill or less in his trade than a master in another trade?

        Again, skills differ qualitatively.

        At best one may conceive as a quantity a particular kind of skill, but not skill generally.
