I understood, and socially insignificant words don't really have a place (aren't most words crafted from social interactions?). And thus I would know nor care to know as long as people are given ways to reach new level of understandings.
I believe something can be done, otherwise I wouldn't bother talking about it. This is only from personal experience, I experienced both feeling of being very talented as a kid, and the complete lack of it, all of a sudden, when going to college. Since then a lot of things that seemed impossible to understand started to click. It feels like experiencing both extremes of the ability spectrum. And in the end talent/innate-ability, or its absence, doesn't really matter. It's mostly desire and patience to unfold your own misconceptions.
And I strongly believe that the school system and society supports that notion that you either get something in a short timespan or you'll never because it's the way society can function; individual well being / growth jailed for this purpose.
I was speaking in an hypothetical future where talent wouldn't be a discriminating concept. In that future, objective concepts like electricity would still matter, and have a very concrete effect on people and society. Compared to nowadays where people are seeking "talents" for instant profit.
