Great article; thanks, man. Ultimately, as the author alludes to, these kinds of language skills are sort of innate. The conclusion the author, unfortunately, never comes to is that these skills are basically a manifestation of high intelligence. Instead, he assigns them as traits of sociopathy.

Lesser intelligent people think that smart people are sociopaths, because they can't understand how smart people make decisions, and understanding this is key to understanding how and why they communicate they way they do.

If your 14 year old, delinquent nephew asks for $100 and you tell him, "sorry bud, but no, and that's for your own benefit" (because, inside, you know that this $100 is not going to help him, especially in the long run), then, as a result, this nephew will likely think of you as an asshole. The concept of a "sociopath" won't yet likely be baked in as a strong synaptic abstraction in his reticular activating system, because he won't yet have learned to replace "asshole" for "sociopath" when it pertains to somebody older and more wealthy; those who do learn this extraneous distinction in their impressionable youth will be hard pressed to unlearn it later when they are more intelligent.
