pp was never meant to be skill - it's performance points. You're ranked so high because you performed really well on certain maps - whether that was a fluke (and you're not actually that good) or not doesn't matter, and it was never meant to matter. In that aspect, the pp system is working exactly as desired.
Map weightings do seem a bit silly, but that's because it's an automated system and does not take beatmap difficulty directly into account. Not much to say on this front that hasn't been echoed a million times.
