I'm not speaking to how the designers intended, but at the end of the day if a 20 is a crit success on skill checks it is a jackpot mechanic. You could go months without getting one in game and when it happens it's absolutely like hitting the jackpot
I think we're talking past each other here-- everyone is saying it SHOULD be a rule and everyone they know does it anyway so it's "part of DND".
It's like stacking +4 cards in uno. Might not be in the rules, but everyone knows to do it.
