I agree with this and it's a conversation I've struggled to have with coworkers about using these -

IMO it's great if a plugin wants to have their own conventions for how to name and where to put these files and their general structure. I get the sense it doesn't matter to agents much (talking mostly claude here) and the way I use it I essentially give its own "skills" based on my own convention. It's very flexible and seems to work. I don't use the slash commands, I just script with prompts into claude CLI mostly, so if that's the only thing I gain from it, meh. I do see other comments speculating these skills work more efficiently but I'm not sure I have seen any evidence for that? Like a sibling comment noted I can just re-feed the skill knowledge back into the prompt.
