Everything as skills

[mlenser]

• Weapons as skills: Consider weapons as skills instead of weapon proficiency #411
• Armor as skills
• Saving throws as skills: Saving throws as skills #417
• Spellcasting abilities as skills: Spellcasting abilities as skills #556

What You could do to avoid the whole disadvantage on skills giving you disadvantage on attacking/casting is separate it out, have Magic Skills, Weapon Skills, General Skills, maybe even separate out Social Should and then whenever an effect gives you disadvantage it gives it to a specific subset of Skills

Armor and saving thows can remain as they are as I'm not convinced that skills is the best fit.
