Except where you run into things like 1/2 a point in a skill in 3rd. You can't spend 1/2 point increments in 4th Ed, and for many of the same skills, spending one point on them in 4th Ed will actually give you one more rating point than you would have for 1/2 a point under 3rd.

Same deal when the 3rd Ed template has 6 points on a skill, like Tactics (CT) for Delta and DEVGRU or Navigation for SEALs.

So having taken your (and Anders') suggestion to convert by comparing actually final skill rating to attribute and determining the cost under 4th, I get 72 points in skills for the SF Weapon's Sgt. That's a lot close to your 50 - 60 point suggestion, but still a decent bit over.
