From what I think, the higher level of skill you have at something, the harder it is to distinguish that level of skill when comparing it to another person. It's much easier to distinguish a level of skill if that level is much lower than complex if comparing it between two people. For example, let's say Billy has been scripting for 2 weeks. Then we have John, who's been scripting for 2 years. You can easily assume John is going to be much better, applying common sense with as much skill and knowledge you can assume someone would have at 2 years of programming. Someone who's only been going at it for 2 weeks is not going to be better than someone who's been going at it for 2 years. Either way, it'll be difficult to contrast two people who have equal skill and experience, especially when it comes to scripting. You'd either have to look at the scripts themselves and see which one has better techniques, or uses better styles and can run more efficiently, or you'd have to compare them in a different level (for example, how much they know in mathmetics, etc.).
