You just don't get what I'm saying. I agree with you that you can measure technical skill, but when it comes to things like composition, you just can't measure it and that's what the poll was also about, not just about technical skill. Of course Cobain is a stupid choice if it was just that, but like you said, it was his killer riffs that made him good or "skilled," as you put it, in the eyes of some.
Contradiction is as follows:

You may like someones riffs, but it dosent make them skilled

Then later:
Quote:
Ability to both compose [is a form of skill]
