HOW a child became a Prodigy-> Polymath-> Creator-> Shakespeare!

The Science of explanation tries to understand how a child can become competent, possibly even a prodigy.  On occasion they harvest enough information and expertise to become a polymath.  The greatest mystery of all time is the Shake-speare puzzle. How could a writer be 10x better than the #2 writer, (considering BILLIONS of competitors)?  Why the most powerful of pseudonym?  Calling yourself Pallas Minerva, springing forth from Apollo, the GOD of poets. The ultimate boast (which is accurate) yet hides behind a veil. What mystery, 400 years later, we know enough to solve it.
