Nor do I see how a skirt in the summer is any easier than a pair of baggy shorts.

Because you can't wear baggy shorts everywhere. ;D
As for layering, the skirt allows you to do that.
Layer under pants? Well, I guess if you're wearing parachute pants or sweatpants. All my regular pants are straight-legged and fit quite close because I'm so short and curvy. If I had baggy pants I'd look like a sloppy tree trunk.

A Minnesotan's perspective:
When it's cold, I guess the layering-under-the-skirt theory makes sense. But unless I'm going to be outside for a long time, I really don't want to wear a million layers. And when it comes to a choice of skirt + tights vs. pants, I choose pants. I rarely wear skirts in the winter at all. For me, they just don't cut it at 20 below. If I AM going to be outside for a long time in the cold, I still choose pants -- snow pants.
When it's hot, skirts are great. They're cooler than baggy shorts because they allow more air circulation (which is the problem, in winter).

Ah, there you go. If it's 20 below I will NEVER be outside for a long time so I don't have to worry about what to wear. 8)
