The term "genius" is so problematically loaded, that it will never function to effectively describe what is occurring in the situations it purports to label.
It is, rather, a sort of "throw up one's hands" effort at slapping a label on a complex reality. It also carries a high propensity to be perceived pejoratively, and thus the underlying reality being completely misunderstood. It is, in this way, a term that invites more argumentation over the term itself, than a proper focus on the complex dynamics it purports to label. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
