What if a physically disabled site visitor loads the page, doesn't see the [skip nav], thinks "bugger this" and leaves before tabbing? Especially if the site's home page does not contain an accessibility statement.
That would probably depend on why they came to the site in the first place. Also, as most mainstream sites don't actually have anything like skip links, I fear they'd say "bugger it" quite often when going online...
