Conjecture
Skill is easy to recognise from outside; judgment is not, because a good call looks wrong to people with poorer judgment (Paul Seabright's distinction, which Hidalgo adopts). That is why committees select judgment badly: they must already have it to see it. A decision market scores judgment by outcome rather than by whether peers understood it, which makes judgment calls the strongest case for using one.

Judgment, however, is harder to identify since it involves making decisions that people with poor judgment will not understand.
