You know, the ability to think for yourself, etc.
I agree, that is certainly an important component of intelligence and/or wisdom.
Let's think about the many inventions, philosophical insights into wisdom, and human progressions creativity has sparked.
As for us thinking for ourselves, or critical thought, I have learned that is mired in psychological human traits/failings, such as programming, denial, ego, power corruption, need to be validated, biases, etc. That too needs to be considered when determining what intelligence/wisdom entails, IMO.
