History of Power Levels (Criticism)

Because you aren't actually doing the actions your character is partaking in, there is no way for you yourself to get better at them. You roll a d20.
I'd just like to highlight that this abstraction completely undercuts any other point you can have about level abstraction as a button on a gamepad or mouse or keyboard is as much an abstraction as selecting actions and rolling a d20 in regard to the actual physical action. Your variables may appear different, but it is no closer to firing a real bow than the d20.
