Don't you think intelligence is preferable in a person?

I enjoy smart people, I admit, but we should all remember intelligence is not negotiable. You get what you get. You can't buy an upgrade.
@Mamapolo2016 Not quite. We do have differences in natural ability, but the brain is highly plastic. Intelligence is a combination of myriad micro skills. These can be learned and get better in direct proportion to how frequently and consistently they are practiced, exactly in the same way that the body changes according to how it is used (or abused).
