I'm thinking about too many things like chess. But in chess played with slower time controls, a critical skill is t recognize important positions and take time on them. And for many people, another important skill is to take more time in general.

Like, a lot of lower Elo game at 10-minute time controls end with the losing person having 8 minutes left. That's not good.
