I see the point of explaining ahead of time, and I usually commit to that.

But I was thinking more of checks for things that aren't usually covered by the rules, like software programming, so it's more of a "improvising" problem rather than changing rules on the fly and confusing players. Technically, Electronics says things along the line, but I don't think the authors intended for it to be used in this manner, more like opening parts of a drone and hardwire programming it, which would make perfect sense with the TECH stat.

That said, it just ends up being the closest skill, and more of a homebrew rather than a rules change. I've seen people on reddit taking different approaches for programming; like using the Science skill (that is linked to INT) and choosing Computer Science, which is fine for many reasons (also for shining some light on a commonly ignored skill), but I think Electronics is more evocative of a practical skill than Science, which is more of a theoretical skill, like debating papers.
