In my experience in the technical domain (read: observing fellow college students), it seems like people need a bit of that generalist energy in them to reliably be the sort that can go between domains. I’m unsure if this is just purely g factor.
I suspect similar is true for every other domain you listed except possibly management and physical (which seem more unified).
I really like the post though—I have definitely felt this way about technical skills, had sorta intuited management and physical, but hadn’t seen this cross transfer design stuff.
Oh yeah, being willing to learn new skills is rare! It’s definitely not just g. My guess is it’s substantially cultural and can be transmitted, but it’s definitely not the default.
