I find that 'intelligent programmers' tend to write better code than 'programmers with intelligence'.
e.g. 'programmers with intelligence' can handle a lot of complexity and need to refactor a lot less, and thus can write messy code and get away with it.
'Intelligent programmers' understand that refactoring is essential and that clearly written, well structured code makes it easy to work with, and far less taxing on the brain.
