this is a lot like the debate over IQ. there is no single measure of intelligence. humans have a broad array of different capabilities with every individuals capabilities sitting somewhere on a spectrum compared to the overall population. some capabilities are highly valuable in particular contexts and so people who are entirely focused on making money over-focus on the capability set that they believe translates into making money.

the people doing the hiring want to hire someone with capabilities they lack (which is why they are hiring in the first place) but then also expect that they will be able to exploit the person they are hiring in order to gain an excess share of the profits they create. the idea that you can hire people for their logic and math skills and expect that they won't be able to calculate their own value is a bit of a paradox.
