  • I think that's an arbitrary and inaccurate idea of the notional Venn diagram. Before you go on, I've spent a large chunk of my career training and communicating to both technical and non-technical people about tech.

  • In an entirely non-rude spirit, if it had anything to do with being able to visualise concepts, my experience is that people in computer tech are no better than the rest of the population and possibly worse on average. I don't know if that's because of the pool of people drawn to the field (which is a lot more diverse than it used to be) or because bad teaching saps their imagination. You only have to look at the code so many of them write to see that.
