Turning a cove with a skew is crazy IMHO. Apart from only having 2 points of contact for support in lieu of rubbing the bevel, as you are not cutting in the direction of the cut you want, there is the tendency to cut too deep.

Here's what I'm talking about, so very hard to take really fine cuts, although would depend on the size of cove and length of bevel on your skew

Agreed for a tight small cove a skew does not do it but a longer cove or bead rolled into a cove then a skew works well.
For the initial cut to begin a cove such as you have illustrated no chisel allows you to ride the bevel imo, but hey I'm hapoy to be corrected.
