Never thought it was that cynical. But maybe it is.
IME it mostly seems to be a lack of thought towards things outside their niche area. Sometimes they find it boring so why amalgamate it into your knowledge bank?

I wonder if these people are just a bit thick, eccentric, or if they are smart enough to know that they are basically protected and untouchable due to having valuable skills that are in such demand so there is literally no benefit to them in engaging with 'lower level life' and attaining actual life skills.
