I feel like it's safe to say, that without magic you can't really know, what people intelligence/experience/whatever else is and though he might have such skill (or however else he would know that just by looking), the only thing he could say for sure is what he saw. And the only thing he saw was them fighting. Which is also discutable, but like realisticly he could be maybe able to tell, that the group is capable at fighting. Others, he can't say (without magic or something). But then, if he had "magic or something", he should be able to tell, that Simon is not a common grunt either. Because even if he can't see, how the shard "improves" Simon, he still has above average experince, above average knowledge and such. He is "ordinary soldier" only in his combat prowess, otherwise he's at least above average... So really, it kinda doesn't make sense, when you think about it... Oh well.
