It would be nice / cool if every skill in the skill tree had an elite upgrade, not just combat then a scattering elsewhere.

Many thanks!

Been discussed. Per Alex:

"Ah - for Combat, that's the story point sink. For other kinds of skills, that aptitude generally unlocks more story point uses. E.G. more elite skills on officers, more s-mods to build in, etc. Also: the point of elite perks in personal combat skills is to make them feel better to take, like you're getting something that you wouldn't get just from sticking an officer into the ship. Given that rationale, there's really no *point* to having elite levels to other types of skills - it's just more story points to spend there."

Industry has colonies / ships recovery as a storypoint sink, leadership has officers and hullmods, and technology has officers.
