How interchangeable are skills? For example, Composure and Resolve - can I use one in place of the other during the game? Or is Composure just for social things, while Resolve is more for supernatural? Similarly, if I'm writing a speech (in a language character knows), can I use Writing instead of Linguistics? Same for Endurance/Resistance and Leadership/Presence, can they interchange?Composure = Charisma Saving Throws
Resolve = Wisdom Saving Throws
Writing = Creative writing. Artistry, but writing.
Linguistics = Knowledge of languages. Typically used to decipher codes, ancient languages, know symbols. Forge documents and duplicate signatures. Can be used to write Speeches, which does overlap with Writing.
Endurance = Constitution saving throws
Resistance = Strength saving throws
Leadership = Command others, give them bonuses, motivate them. Can be used over recordings and even via writing.
Presence = First impressions, stand out in a crowd, intimidate and charm without speaking. Need to be present and seen to be used.

I don't understand Wits. The description of "acting on emotions" - isn't it basically Taunting/Persuasion? In what situation would one use Wits over something else? I always thought of Wits as what is Cleverness here, hence the confusion. XD-

Maneuvering. What kind of maneuvering? There are already Tactics for command and Vehicle Op for vehicles, and dodging is covered by Reflexes. An example would be nice! -

Also, is Streetwise supposed to be Charisma-based? No objection here, I just usually usually see it in other games as Intelligence or
