He's right.

How many times have you heard:
"'Well you know, some people can be really good at some things, and just be bad at others, right? We're all different. Like one guy might be really good at politics, or math, and yet not get how to change the oil in his car[...]."

This is another way to say the person was overspecialized and trained such that they lack the capacity, or will (mostly this), to understand a wide breadth of topics. This type of person is self deluding and near useless, but they're everywhere. They're people who had the newage collectivist kool-aid pushed on them, and eventually drank.

It's true it's a complex world out there and it takes time to learn a large array of things enough that you can have a sense for when you don't actually understand. But when it comes to changing your oil, open up your goddamn manual, get down there, and do it. It will all become clear. Fluid comes out, fluid goes in, an' there ya go bud. You changed your oil. No more justifying laziness for you. :^)

Who is really actually smart to you then? What would you claim non-superficial intelligence to be?

Me, for example.

I excel in logical reasoning and problem solving, except I can't work with actual numbers.

I.E I can do math with variables extremely well but can't do basic arithmetic for shit.
