Sorry for the confusion. You were talking about merely "being a scientist", which obviously does require a skillset, so I responded to that.
In the post you replied to, I was talking about the difference between "successful scientists" who have actually made a significant scientific achievement, and other scientists, who I think will often have comparable skillsets. That difference is what I'm trying to explain. I do not think "science is mainly luck".
If there's a skill that distinguishes successful scientists from scientists that aren't it's not clear that the same skill also makes successful entrepreneurs.
As a result you can assume that the skill doesn't exist just because scientific success doesn't transfer to reliable success as an entrepreneur.
You mean “As a result you can't assume”?
Yes.
