What does it say about me that I'd rather build ice skates than ear muffs?

That you are more interested in disruptive innovations than you are in sustaining innovations.
That you're probably more a designer than a pragmatic engineer.
That you're taking the analogy too literally? Ice skating does sound more fun.

On the contrary you are taking ambicapter too literally; I can only assume they meant they'd prefer building ice skates in the metaphorical sense -- they'd rather build for a new desire, than create a solution for a known problem.
