Merit of low-skill v's default?

For a skill with no listed Techniques but multiple specialties, eg Electronics Repair, what is the merit of 1cp in twelve specialties, giving low skills, as opposed to 12cp in one specialty, giving one professional level skill and several defaults of the same skill value as 1cp?

Is its merit only that, should a Technique be proposed, you want to be assured of access?

It was the Engineering Branch in Icelanders FLat Black Naval Officers that brought this to mind.
