Well, Thanks Grandpa Gop, I'm not so sure about genius grade status, but we are definitely creative.
The main part is it takes 'tools' to make tools. Then it goes farther, accomplishing those with means available. Not important whether "it" occurs roundabout or straight away, both are a learning process.
Like many here, my background is machine work, nearly 40 years. Seen incredible machinists but NONE ever knew everything.
Frank S related about one he knew who thought highly of himself, until it was pointed out that fellow only had done the same thing for decades.
And learning just doesn't work that way.
