Also not a vegetarian and i agree 100% with your 3rd point. Cooking good vegetarian food requires more skill - to me, meat is like a cheat code for flavour. In my opinion, Indian cuisine offers some of the tastiest veg dishes because they are not adaptations of meat dishes, but their own thing entirely.
I don’t think it requires more skill, just more effort. Cut off a chunk of meat and add heat and you’re most of the way to a good flavour, while veg dishes usually require a variety of vegetables, each of which requires more prep than the meat did. There are exceptions, but as a general rule of thumb if they’re putting the time and effort into doing the vegetarian dishes properly it shows they’re doing everything else properly too.
