There is a type of person who can only reply with "smart people can do bad things" when discussing competence in any form.

But there are only so many ways you can say "smart people can do bad things" without sounding repetitive, and it looks like they're scraping at the bottom of the barrel.

Of course not. My point was that there are more important parts of the mind that need training. You can't overcome the mind's evolutionary weaknesses in perception of the world and in being in control over its inner workings by having a good memory.
