[Not a Bug]Can't Learn Tailoring Skills with Level Requirement Met

1. Title: Can't Learn Tailoring Skills with Level Requirement Met
2. Reproduction Rate: 100%
3. Blocker? Sort of?
4. Details: I worked my Tailoring skill up to 60 to be able to learn several recipes that I'd purchased, but am unable to do so, as can be seen in the illustration attached below. I've achieved the requisite 60 skill in Tailoring, but the recipe does not recognize this. I have 8 recipes that require Tailoring 60, but can learn none of them.
5. Steps to Reproduce: Get to 60 Tailoring skill and attempt to learn a recipe requiring a tailoring skill of 60.
6. User Specs: Win10 latest update, NVidia 1070 GTX w/ latest drivers, i5, 32GB RAM

Photographic Evidence:

 

Addendum: Raised Skill to 61 to see if it was a fencepost problem. Still cannot learn skills.

 

rufus, your screenshot in the other thread shows your proficiency is 55.2: the green text in the mouseover for the skill.

 

That's very unclear.

I stand by my position that this is a bug and should be corrected.

 

@Rufus D`Asperdi - Thank you for reporting.

While I agree that it is somewhat confusing, it is working as intended. As I explained in the other thread you posted the SS in, the recipes require a "Proficiency" level and not a "Skill" level... which do not always = the same thing due to the diminishing returns progress curve.

 

I understand (Now) that it's working as intended... I think that should be changed... If your ability to be able to use a recipe is contingent on a number, the difference between Skill Level and Proficiency is esoteric and will be a point of confusion and frustration for Avatars into the foreseeable future.

 

I (and many others) agree with that point. The confusing nature of the different terminology will be a repetitive issue for all new players who have not "learned" this nuance yet.

Perhaps that would be a good question/suggestion to make during today's postmortem!
