Mod, what point is there at all about bragging about anyone’s level of genius, even a Godol? We should be inspired to wish we were born with that ability? People tell stories about Gedolim to inspire with us an appreciation of their caring, Ahavas Yisroel, Dikduk B’Mitzvos, and things like that. Things that we can emulate and do. These people did not become Gedolim simply because they were born with a stronger memory or better intellectual capabilities. I’m not telling anyone what to be inspired by. I’m just pointing out that the part of the story that emphasizes the Rogochover as a leader of K’lal Yisroel is not the part the OP focused on.
