You obviously haven't paid attention or tried things on Singularity.

Currently on Singularity you need to have every single pre-requisite skill in order to interact with a ship (assemble, board, undock etc). So even if you have Command Ships trained, Battlecruiser V trained etc, you'll still need to train the two racial warfare skills up to IV before you can use the ship again.

I'm guessing this is either a simple as the new Shield Command (former Siege Warfare) and Skirmish Command (former Skirmish Warfare), for a Sleipnir for example, becoming a "primary" skill requirement instead of a secondary skill required for the primary skill Command Ships ... or it has to do with the way they implemented the alpha vs omega clone "downgrade" that locks you out of ships you no longer have the skills for.

This means that a lot of older pilots will no longer be able to fly ships they currently can fly. Thus won't "be able to fly what they can already fly", which has often been CCP's stance on changes.

This is just the change from secondary skills to primary.
CCP, you need to put this into the change to first post, since currently those skills are including in the CS requirements and it makes it sound like you are totally removing the Command skills, not moving them onto the ships themselves.

And moreover, means old dudes probably won't be able to fly them come patch day if this is the case.

Last I checked sisi, the link skills were moved out of command ships but into the hull, which means despite having several guys with command ship 5, they're not going to be able to fly it.

Maybe.
