Note that being the best admiral is... not a major part of that list.

For the commander of a fleet? The bolded would all involve military tactics to a degree. The other 40% involves tactics in a much more minor way such as tacking down and punishing failures, or winning consistently and decisively enough that no one in his fleet thinks they can beat him, or that they know better.
It's also worth noting that a deamonship is serving in his fleet. That's a pretty big boon to get.
