I discovered the current Hero Pass event doesn't count slicing cheese for skilling, despite each slice giving 4 XP (much more than some disassemblies which give like 0.4 XP each).

I can't remember if Yak Track counted cutting cheese slices for "skill and kill".

It doesn't make any sense that cutting cheese doesn't count as skilling, especially when it is so proactive. You can only slice-all one wheel of cheese at a time, the slicing is fast, and at high cooking levels 1 wheel is basically an inventory of slices. That means clicking far more often than, say, grinding combat in the Abyss.

Why can't we slice cheese for "skill over time" things?

Activities giving xp don't always count toward completion of events like Yak Track, and its descendent Hero Pass.

I don't know about slicing cheese, but I am certain skilling and getting xp in Daemonheim Dungeon doesn't count toward skilling requirement of many events.

There are some activities that do not count for systems like this (awarding some currency for promotions, granting s/k progress,...) - which is extremely annoying, since those promotions and events would be perfectly fit to do them alongside of some activities you've postponed for a while.

The best option you have is sending a bug report and hoping for the best - they have fixed some similar instances in the past. If it isn't fixed the next time - send another one.

should we collect a list of activities that we noticed don't count? and then send the whole list to jagex?

so far we have
- cutting cheese
- grinding wyvern bones
- grinding goat horns
- planting (fruit) tree seeds into a plant pot, and watering it

it is very likely that these activities were simply forgotten

You can just send them a bug report if you think it is a bug. They do make small QoL patches almost every week.
