      I'm genuinely asking for opinions. in the past I might have given what I would now call a naive answer... now I don't even know if there is one. is being smart really a thing?

      wisdom seems related but different maybe a sort of interior-competence rather than world-competence? complements not substitutes

      I have no idea how to explain the qualia of being varying degrees of smart unfortunately :/ I think a lot of it is just . . . feeling things snap into place more or less quickly, or not at all Perceiving resonance or dissonance within and across patterns

      all patterns generally or limited to certain kinds? can it be taught, trained? i do think there is something to it, a quality of being "smart" in some way, but it's just not what is commonly believed, and does not have any special value (as you said)

      I'm not sure what classes of patterns. Probably all? (but highly uncertain) I'm not sure about training either. Being exposed to certain patterns makes it easier to identify them (or their absence) elsewhere, but there seems (???) to be a native component at each level

          what about patterns you understand you understand them because you have studied them intensely and you have studied them intensely because they interest you
