Replacing general feats

[Atalius]

Can I instead of gaining a general feat swap it for a skill feat in its place?

So, yes

Yeah, that one works because Skill Feats are a subcategory of General Feats.

Most other swaps between Feat types don't work unless specific Feats allow them (like Natural Ambition or Ancestral Paragon), but this one does.

This isn't even a swap: Skill Feats are already included the list of possible General Feats you can take.

Well yes, but most people are gonna think of it as a swap even though it's technically not. It not being one is, of course, why it works.
