As to why no default well they are quite a bit different in applicaiton.
Holdout is hiding on a person and smuggiling in a building or vehicle.
Camoulfalge would be used to hide the person, vehicle or building rather then something in it.

I actually wasn't trying to address the question of defaults at all. I was disagreeing with Jason's post, which I think is a misreading of the rules.

I still don't have a specific position on Smuggling defaulting to other skills. But I would suggest that Camouflage could sometimes be used as a complementary skill for Smuggling: You have a hidden compartment in your house or car, and you want to cover it up with clutter to discourage a thorough search, say.
