It assumes that "Skill" is a 1d value. But the ability to write quality code and the ability to debug are a bit orthogonal.

Being better at debugging doesn't necessarily makes you better at writing less complex, more approachable code. Though debugging should teach you which patterns cause bugs or impede debugging.

And what do you do once you are so skilled your software doesn't have bugs? :P
