You sir are a splitter. No problem, just remember that many of us are lumpers. :)

Ironically, in the thread previous to this I'm arguing that certain skills are close enough to each other that their defaults should be closer.
So it's not so much that I necessarily want to split everything or lump everything, but more that I place a great deal of value on logical and consistent groupings.
