> everyone has the capacity to be bright

Everyone is different, that is true. But taking that multifaceted existence and flattening it when really this discussion is only about one aspect of that existence (that effectively has already been flattened, but in some other way) is not nice. It tells folks who are quite simply better at some aspects of their life than other people that in fact they are not better, those other people are sometimes better too. But this is about learning. They are objectively better.

That means some folks are objectively worse - which doesn't mean they can't excel in some other area of life. That's not what's under discussion.
