ADHD?
I think in elementary school they refer to that as “bright.”
“Oh little Billy is one of the brightest students.”
Fast forward, little Billy graduated college, moved to Philly, works as a barista, knows the complete lore of 40k but doesn’t use their degree in any meaningful way.
The closest concept is severly deficient autobiographical memory (SDAM), a lifelong inability to vividly recollect or re-experience personal past events from a first-person perspective.
…this is another aphantasia thing, people can recall memories in first person!?
You can just call it ADHD my man.

Dang. I have both of these things.
