Why Graph-added People Skills Don’t Show Up on the User Profile Card

Microsoft’s People Skills service can use AI to attribute 16,000 different skills to users. Those skills show up on the user profile card. However, once a Microsoft 365 tenant enables People Skills, they lose the ability to add custom skills for user profiles via Graph APIs or People Connectors. It’s a curious situation where Microsoft blocks custom additions because its AI-powered service is active. Couldn’t both exist alongside each other?
