Why did Weyl waste time with Hilbert

Weyl was both a math and philosophical genius

Hilbert was only good at math and not philosophy

why did Weyl waste time with an inferior mind?

Hilbert was the more significant mathematician with the deeper insight (which not to say Weyl wasn't a top mathematician). Weyl is not really known for being a philosopher and in any case most philosophy just boils down to arguing about the meaning of words.

I would pay good money to see Op ask him this question. By all accounts hilbert was one of his greatest influences as his teacher and a dear friend.
