according to my understanding skirmish mode can be turned off and not having the hability to use it to save a few precious units like my kretikoi so they can witrawh behinde your batle line "automaticallY" when necessary would be an hassle

Just look when you remove Deisi Javelinmen's cannot_skirmish ability. The AI become ridiculous with using their attacks so rarely. And withdraw when they saw even a pitchfork armed peasants that they should be really easy to kill w their stats.

I'm not sure if we really need the cannot_skirmish.
The main purpose of cannot_skirmish is for the AI. Since it doesn't know when to turn on or off the skirmishing mode by itself. However, the javelinmen units can have the "prec" which is much better for non-skirmishing types of units which have javs as primary weapon. The others which have arrows and slings will probably be better with skirmishing ability to optimize their longer range.
However, the Archer-Spearman is good example of a situation where we may adopt the cannot_skirmish attribute because we don't want the AI to have the Archer-Spearman skirmishing against cavalry.

That's not, however, their main task, which is skirmishing and support.
