I'm mildly offended by the casual use of the word "wizard" here - I don't believe that they actually exist.
I'm not American, but I tend to think that assuming the existence of wizards or geniuses is fundamentally Unamerican.
If anything, the concept of wizard etc. is pretty much in the eyes of the beholder. In this sense, we're digging ourselves deeper by needlessly magnifying and exaggerating one's "ability". Different people produce different outcomes, but the difference in their output is mostly accidental.
Humans are not comfortable with explaining everything as luck. But I think many things are actually explained by luck, and we should take it easy.
