The ultimate in high status is effortless omniscience,as displayed by James Bond, who always knows everything about everything from nuclear reactors to the international diamond trade without ever reading a book.
If James Bond wandered into a discussion of jewelry and started pontificating about the international diamond trade, I wonder if it would be seen as high status or low status.
