Luckily I have not met any programmer like that yet, let’s keep our fingers crossed.

I’m willing to believe the bar to pass to be a successful programmer requires a certain level of problem-solving skill and intelligence; but that doesn’t mean no other profession has smart people. I’d imagine lots of other professions have a similar bar to pass, and even ones with lower bars to pass to succeed in that profession probably still have their prodigies and geniuses.
