Yeah, for me I think it's less about "being more intelligent" as a general and more "I learned way more about (X) because I was hyperfixated". I think that's where people get mixed up. It's not a generalized boost to intelligence so much as spending way more time studying something than a normal person would because brain tickle feel good. People only see the result of that
