To be fair, the entire concept of leveling up doesn't make real world sense either.

Right now, I don't speak Chinese. 30 seconds from now, after I've stabbed a rat, I suddenly understand all of the complex mechanics an interactions of the language out of nowhere. A minute ago, I had no way to get into a locked door, but fortunately I discovered a new location, pinged a level up, and suddenly learned the basics of lockpicking by somehow magically pulling the knowledge out of the ether.

The most realistic system is generally the ones where the more you do something, the better you get at it. Those just don't tend to be very fun cause they get real grindy.
