It says it's different to human skin in multiple aspects.

Do I need more collagen or more moisture in my skin? I would expect evolution made some pretty good choices around default human skin for typical human activities, and if more moisture was obviously good, I would already have it.

Maybe tilapia skin is better for people who spend 24 hours a day swimming in lakes.

No it says "even more than in human skin and other skins". Not different.

For this context? Yes? Clearly the article answers that already. I even included in my first reply but you'll have a third chance to read it:

> ...which are very important for scarring...

And your attempt to move the goal post fails miserably as well. Or do you think humans evolved to perfection by thinking this:

> I would expect evolution made some pretty good choices around default human skin for typical human activities, and if more moisture was obviously good, I would already have it.

I don't think you are debating in good faith. Good luck.
