No, that's still incorporated to some degree in skill level. The problem is that realistic skills generally aren't monolithic things that you get better or worse at, they're a bunch of related microskills/familiarities, and while a higher level of general skill will typically let you pick up a new familiarity faster, you still won't be able to do it by default unless you get fairly lucky.
