Are individuals with a certain good quality Q interesting to us because of that quality — or because them having Q reveals to us that “they are the type of person who has Q”? What is, strictly speaking, the difference?

Not sure of type of Q you have in mind, but maybe relevant: Steven Smith's The Great Mental Calculators is interesting cuz it explores people's prodigious calculating powers but also it exposes how it fit into their lives. Unique methods, unique stories.
