To be fair, yes, there are these people, but I think the general public wouldn't mind given the technology nature. Even among programmers people tend to claim to have multiple skillsets. When I write my resume / cv I am very conservative. I only mention the one I am confident (and omits ones that I only have a glance or very minimal usage). For example, my first web framework is Django but I don't even put Django in my resume only because I barely do any real Django development.

I think in the long run, I don't really want to believe what people said on LinkedIn. I just don't. We all have those moments where we just want to say Yes to every question LinkedIn ask "Does so and so have this skill?"
