Wildcard skills includes EVERY sub-skills, even those you don't even know exist. So they will usually cover at least 10-15 skills (otherwise, there would be no point in using them). So,

1) An equivalent Talent would cost 10 or 15 points per level, not 5
2) Wildcard skills cover skills you don't even know exist
3) Wildcard skills are cinematic.
4) Wildcard skills can cover fighting skills, something which is strongly discouraged with Talents

So there's no way I would consider Wildcard skills simply a costier version of a Talent.
