Growing a moustache is pure genetic luck, and you can learn how to swing a hammer in about thirty seconds.

You cant downplay hammer skills, though. There is almost no skill ceiling with hammers. Put any blacksmith up against an amateur, and you'll quickly see the difference between 30 seconds of training and 30 years.

Also the smith will still be hitting their target after a few hours of constant hammering. An amateur is gonna lose their accuracy within the first hour.

I just redid my bathroom. I could go 30 mins tops swinging a 3 pound hammer before I was done for the day.
