Ever heard the saying ignorance is bliss? Being just smarter without an outlet means you’re just going to be focused on… well nothing which is also debilitating. Most people we see as smart are just focused on a specific skillset or aptitude and have spent a lot of their own time honing that. For some people that focus comes easier.
Slamming a button that makes you smarter just means you might be more aware of what you don’t know and how you handle that could be more of a curse than a blessing.

You (and pretty much every person in this thread. It’s amazing how you people are in agreement that being smart is bad) should go into the scrap irony business.
