I think that skill games are only possible when you are playing with other players. For example, games like poker or blackjack. In these games, the most skilled player really wins. One-on-one skill games with casinos still involve a bit of luck. You need to show your good skills, and the casino is enough to wait for the moment when you are not lucky.
Skill based slots is a kind of option for those people who find slot machines more attractive than sitting at the card table.
Don't forget about the main reason why we are gambling. We enjoy it. It's fun. This is a way to escape the stark reality. Have you ever played a single computer game that would require a certain level of skill to successfully finish it? What is the point of such game if you are not competing with real humans? The whole point is to prove to yourself that you are able to complete the game on a high level of difficulty. The same can be applied to skill based slots. You are not playing against other people, you are not competing with them to find out who the best player in the room is, but you are still competing with casino. If you are skilled enough to play against casino, you will be awarded.
I think I played these slots in a casino. They are completely electronic and there, when a certain game combination falls out, the game begins, which really depends largely on the player's skills. However, it is worth noting that the chance of starting such a game and the amount that will be played there depend on luck. Therefore, in this case, we can not say that everything is 100% dependent on the skill of the player.
You are right to say that we are all different with our desires and habits. Someone likes to play against the casino, someone likes to play with other people. In no case do I impose what I like on other people. I just expressed my opinion on this issue.
