Because those aren't challenges you put towards an adventuring party. There is a level of scaling that you must implement to keep a game even vaguely interesting, if i put something so banal in front of any decent player they'd keep moving and look for the real hook.

So to be clear, if you get skill checks that your character is too good at, it's because the DM sucks, but if you play this other system where you can have skill challenges that are impossible to fail, that's because the system is better than D&D? I'm sorry, but you make no sense. I think we're done here. I think I know why you found D&D to be the worst RPG system you've ever played.
