Almost all the nutritional value is in the skin

Uhhhh, you might want to look that one up. For some veg, there is more fibre in the skin, but that's about it.

I'm a chef that has studied nutrition as much as I can, for green and leafy veggies that is absolutely true, but those aren't the ones that people normally skin.

The legumes that I specifically pointed out have a ton of vitamins that concentrate in the skin specifically, and those are the "vegetables" that the layman has a tendency to skin. The center is mostly starch and sugar.
