I didn't say it did, but when I am looking for a "fast learner", they develop a flow state and collect experience to fold back into their feedback model of learning a new domain.
They are doing continuous hypothesizing and refutation and showing/proving the same result from multiple directions.
My experience with "whiz kids" people is that they have immense raw mental analysis power, but not broad analytical ability and their lack of real world context greatly hinders them. They don't have the ability to synthesize alternative viewpoints, their view of the world is from a monocular distant vantage point.
