Why would other games want to allow Fortnite skins in their game? If their players are willing to spend money on skins wouldn't they be better off just selling skins?

Nevermind the technical and practical concerns. What does it even mean to apply a Fortnite skin to a battleship or a racecar?

Exactly. The incentives are all off here, and it doesn't create any mutually beneficial relationships. The participants who stand to benefit in this hypothetical future are companies making shovelware games who would love to lean on availability of other games' assets, companies selling knockoff "skin packs", etc.
