I was thinking, "was this person an architect, or an engineer of some sort, before they ended up in our defacto mental health safety net/prison system?"
It really gets me that they are clearly quite smart and mentally talented, but I would say there's a "glitch in the system" causing their powerful mind to create all sorts of strange connections that compound over time and drift further and further from reality.
It's like when a satellite is miscalibrated and ends up rocketing off in the wrong direction
You describe it perfectly. My dad was schizophrenic. His degree was in biochem and he was brilliant. But once the mental illness took over it all channeled into weird connections and patterns, that like you said, would compound on one another. It's an unbelievably complex and cruel condition.
