I basically disagree with every assumption you've made about yourself. All of the evidence you've provided points to your intelligence.
There is no miracle ability to understand data science[1]. It just takes interest and time. You should only move to another field if it interests you more.
You did say something though that weighs particularly on me.
> I genuinely feel I’m thinking too slow in general, always felt.
This is one of my insecurities as well. Not just mentally but physically as well. I've come to the conclusion that there is no such thing as quickness. Its just a fault of our first-person perspective of the world. But I don't really know for sure.
For what its worth, my assessment of you is that you are an intelligent person and that you could become a data scientist should you choose to do so. It will take time and effort but that is expected.
