I feel at a certain level, some scientists can't be said to be smarter than others, they're just singular pinnacles, but they are constrained by their times.
Archimedes, da Vinci, Newton, Euler, Maxwell, Tesla, Curie, Bardeen...
They were all beyond brilliant, but saying one was smarter than others turns into an argument about the tools they had access to, their contemporaries, and I don't feel that does them justice
