5e the big factors are charisma bonus and either no proficiency bonus or skilled in the skill for proficiency bonus (+2 to +6 depending on level) or for rogue and bard a medium level class feature of expertise which doubles proficiency bonus for a skill.I'm not really familiar with 5E I can't speak to that, I stopped playing D&D with the release of 4E and moved to Pathfinder and only play the first edition of it. In 3.x/Pathfinder skills can be a big deal and if I dumped a bunch off skill points into Bluff, Diplomacy and/or Intimidate then bought the feat Skill Focus to increase at least one of those and had to roleplay all social encounters and never got to roll I would, rightfully, be aggravated.
I guess this becomes the issue with a thread not related to a specific edition of D&D, we end up talking about different games.
So it is a choice of whether you are playing one of the four charisma classes or not, whether you put one of your skills into persuasion instead of perception or arcana or stealth and if you are a bard or rogue whether you put your expertise in a social skill or something else.
Not really the feat investment stuff that 3e had and not really a big let down of opportunity costs unless you are investing in charisma in a non charisma class and giving up stuff to pump into charisma.
