All of our culture deals with interactions between average people. People with significantly greater or less intelligence than average do not have a bank of ancient answers to ancient questions to draw on. One simple example of that would be norms against debt and lending - if you are very clever they don't apply to you, but that doesn't mean you don't need any norms. In fact someone who borrows and lends needs more guidelines and more complex guidelines if they're going to navigate business risks successfully.
