How can Egwene know she's unskilled if she's never Healed?

Egwene doesn't understand Nynaeve's extremely complex weave to Heal stilling. Since this is a completely different skill, and from Romanda's PoV, we know that skill in the old style Healing has nothing to do with skill in the new style, I fail to see what your point here is.
And Egwene has never Healed anyone because she has never been in a position to do so after being raised Aes Sedai.
Siuan knew her ability with Healing had not changed after being stilled and Healed.
Elayne already knew that she could only Heal bruises before we see her Heal Rand in TSR. Must have tested it out somewhere along the road.
I wonder, Egwene clearly knows all the various Healing weaves (new and old), seems to me that she would have had to have used them in the camp at some point while learning. How else do these women all know precisely how much Talent they possess...
Healing seems to me to be one of the OP mysteries out there... in EoTW Moiraine Heals Tam, but he's still bed ridden for days afterward, Mat is similar, but his wounds were different than a slash from a Fade's sword.
Early in the series Nyn/Eg/El talk about how Healing is considered too dangerous for Novices/Accepted to be taught. yet by KOD Tiana is letting them learn the new weaves as well as the old. Perhaps the Tower has just began forcing Novices in anticipation of the LB? Of course with all the older women entering the Novitiate it's possible that they are just more mature and learn at a much faster pace than young girls.

Who comes out looking worst in the Egwene-Suana encounter? Egwene, Suana or B-Sand?

I interpreted it as Branderson trying to make the Yellow more believable.

Please recall that you have admitted an inferior understanding of American English connotations.

Yes. I admit to not being fully familiar with a third rate rip off of a language I speak. So?

Actually it's trying to sort who is to blame for various idiocies.

This sounds like the descriptions I've heard of The Sword of Truth.
