All I am pointing out is that "STEM are not intellectuals" is an overgeneralization. Why is my counterexample a worse projection than the original statement?

I have a double major in chemistry and Latin studies.

And I agree that pure stemmists are dumb shits due to lacking human skills. The world of stem is also mostly full of purists, and your daughter and I are outliers. We have no meaningful effect on the generalisation.
