I think that's a bit of inflated ego influencing his perception.

Allows him to see himself as smarter if he downplays the importance of others' views/contributions & of sources that predate his own while leading to same conclusions.

Wictor absolutely has an ego that drives him (in addition to logical curiosity), but he masks it well with his use of logic.

Not saying he's a bad guy & not that he isn't smart, because he is extremely sharp & I really enjoy reading his analyses. But I definitely sense an ego that precedes his better qualities occasionally by causing him to be slightly in denial of things that are really of no consequence to him (or would even be gracious of him) to acknowledge.

Or maybe he really is a wizard with better intuition than any of us that allows him to detect things about Q that we don't... Who knows, lol.
