Due you suppose consumers are only unable to determine pilot skill due to a lack of prior incentive to develop systems for disseminating this information or because it is technologically impossible?

Some of both. Even if one were to postulate a pilot rating organization other than the faa, let's not pretend it wouldn't be just as captured by the various pilots as the credit-rating agencies were captured by the banks whose products they rated.
But again, we have a system with an astounding track record of safety and great prices too. It's what we use for commercial airlines.
