Describe the bug
The paws mutation, which among other things applies a what appears to be a flat skill penalty to crafting, makes crafting items requiring 1 tailoring, electronics or mechanics fail seemingly every time when your relevant skills are at 1, even with very high intelligence. This makes levelling those skills without a book extremely difficult, as you gain no XP for the failed crafts, but still waste materials.
Steps To Reproduce
Expected behavior
Per it's description, Paws should moderately impact your success when crafting, but it should use a multiplier or some other scaling penalty rather than a flat skill reduction, so that a character can eventually grow to overcome the penalty naturally rather than being stonewalled by it if they are not already skilled. Causing you to fail more often is fine, but causing you fail EVERY time is not.
Screenshots
Note the lack of any progress toward the next level of tailoring.
