Merit of low-skill v's default?

[jacobmuller]

That brings to light another puzzle - you can have Mechanic (Ship) and

diagnose and fix ordinary mechanical problems

found in the

controls, hull, motive system, power plant, transmission, and even the paint job of one specific type of vehicle listed under a vehicle-operation skill

But you'd need four to six Electronics Repair specialties for the same vessel, more if it's weird science (Comm/ EW/ Medical/ Sensor/ Sonar/ Security).

So your ship could have one mechanic but may need a Lot of electronics staff. Must be when you pick the one you believe you need to specialise in and hope your default isn't needed too often (EW v's sensor, med, comm...)
