Create some information architecture for skills you might have. If you're applying for a dev job, and you want to point out other software skills, like photoshop — don't mash it together with your python skills.

If your skills section is too "flat" someone might read into it as "oh, this person is way too much of a generalist", are they specifically skilled as a python developer?

You can have those other skills, but just make sure to present them in a way that reads well to someone who is going to only quickly glance at the document.
