No evidence, and no reason to expect that to be the case. I also don't think that things like math are predominantly directed creativity. Math at the highest level is extremely open ended. The problem in fields you describe comes from the audience. If you want to have a audience you must do works for that audience to understand and enjoy. If the experiences and interests are too different, it does not work. Some people like Stephen King are very good and highly intelligent, but they are not popular just because they are good writers. They write for the audience with reading level of a teenager. It's a conscious choice. It's slightly more boring to read than necessary for maybe 20% of the readers but it pays off.
