Intelligence is a commodity and is often over-rated. For example, I think energy/focus is more important.
Everyone has something valuable to give whether they are smart or not. More relevant is "Do I like this person?"
A focus on intelligence rather than "do i like them" seems like you are rigging the game in favor of your strengths. You're intelligent so that's the lens through which you view the world. A beautiful person or an exception people person might use those lens.
Again, "do i like them?" is more important than your biased lens.
