I dont see much of a difference.
'I'm sorry, but since you cant lift 200lbs then obviously your character cannot either'
'I'm sorry, but since you do not have an int of 32 like your character then he cannot solve riddles'
I've started another thread dealing with this issue. Feel free to check it out!
My short answer to your question is that social skills and physical skills are not analogous. Social skills are what RPGs involve doing, sitting around a table, talking, planning, figuring things out. Physical skills are what RPGs involve *simulating*, jumping, running, fighting dragons, etc.
