Whenever the brain is affected, only some components are affected, and biology majors tend to be better statistically at some aspects of the brain more than others. For instance, did you know that engineers and scientists tend to be the least imaginative while those majoring in the social sciences, humanities or arts tend to be much more imaginative? (and imagination depends on implicit memory ability) (Even though intelligence is reversed with CS phD's and math phD's being the smartest followed by physicists and engineers (though physicist and engineer bachelors are smarter than CS bachelors...)) All of this exemplifies the Intellect/Openness simplex pretty well which relates itself to Fluid vs Crystallized Intelligence or to Letter vs Thematic fluency.. (and they both can even covary and create something like genius.. it's just much more freer than it seems) but what I'm saying is that just don't oversimplify "dumbness" or "smartness". Also the best critical thinkers are certainly the analytic philosophers (followed by the mathematicians, etc.) (and additionally while scientists in general are not imaginative, revolutionary scientists like Einstein, Neumann, and Shannon are definitely the imaginative kind, they shifted paradigms or created entirely new fields (it's even speculated that Einstein wasn't autistic but rather schizotypal) (And one can definitely say that von Neumann is an extremely intelligent person and also very imaginative, just look his article on Wikipedia)
