And still not solving my issue of it covering what's at least two skills for one handed use.
Not remotely. I can't find anything ambiguous in my post to explain quite such a big misunderstanding as appears to have taken place. However, Basic Set page 208 has the Melee Weapons skills and how they are divided if you want to find clearer criteria to distinguish between them.

Personally I think wielding a duelling halberd in one hand (ways it was never intended to be used) should not be straightforward, so using 2 skills seems appropriate to me. But if this isn't helping you I'll not bother you further.
