I'm not sure I buy that a Fighter should spend so much time fighting that they don't have time to learn skills. What does proficiency actually mean in Arcana, it is like having a Masters or PHD? How much time does the Rogue spend learning their sneak attack? What about the Bard? Lots of spells, and lots of skills and they get expertise and they fight a bit too?
And that's with the dubious assumption that some sense of realism is the most important thing here. It seems obvious that the primary point is the level of ability to contribute across all three pillars. (Or rather inside or outside of combat - we should probably stop pretending that 'three pillars' actually means anything).
It's not that hard. My Dunedain Warrior (basically a Fighter) in Adventures in Middle Earth has a culture virtue (Feat) which he can use either in or out of combat (and budget seperately) whereby revealing his ancestry can heal his allies and frighten enemies and gain a bonus to social skills during scenes when he reveals him. He also has a subclass ability that gives him advantage and disadvantage on intimidate or persuasion when he draws his magic sworld and makes an appropriate speech.
