I don't think I said exactly what I meant to. I was actually thinking about the idea that a CIA contact with 15 Intelligence Analysis is more valuable than a weaponsmith with 15 Armory because he could let you into the CIA and let you use CIA gear. But that would expose you both to a lot of risk of exposure of your highly illegal relationship.

Perhaps the most valuable thing about having a contact with a skill rather than the skill yourself is that the contact can be using his skill while you are attending to other business and using facilities that aren't necessarily mobile, like an office in the CIA, or a workshop.
