As a CW contester, and I've been QRMed by RTTY guys.  Conversely, when 
I've operated RTTY contests, I've been QRMed by CW guys (probably more 
frequently.)  So it works both ways.

Part of the problem is there are way too many RTTY contests - something 
almost every weekend.  Related to this is the non-R2 40m allocation 
around 7040, and now 80m is squeezed, too.

The way the bands are currently allocated, there is no solution.

Regarding skill levels, tell your friend to stuff it :.)  Personally, I 
rank skill level required highest for CW, next for RTTY and last for SSB.
