Would we be bewildered by how smart he supposedly is? He can do math, he's supposed to be socially sophisticated given his upbringing and career.
We wonder how a college graduate could be surprised at having accumulated $100k in education debt, as it's very simple arithmetic and doesn't occur in an eyeblink. But for them the money is incidental to their goal of education and probably career. For SBF, the currency (fiat, crypto) is the goal itself. It really doesn't compute. We see some people also pursue their path in a Wile E Coyote fashion, we see these days that they don't fall if they don't look down. (Boris Johnson finally looked down. Other countries' former leaders may not have looked down ever.) I wouldn't rule this out. Though he could be utterly clueless, once again hard to square with his education and socialization.
