We know that talent exists because people vary in ability. Ability isn't innate because it takes time to achieve. However, the willingness to spend time and energy is based on our innate interest and intelligence. Interest + Intelligence = Talent. Talent + Time = Ability.
Talent is what drives society forward, so we should find out who has talent and support them. If there isn't a consensus on prioritizing talent, society won't create the necessary conditions for talent to thrive, and we won't have innovation. Innovation creates value. Talent has the potential to grow into value, but only if society recognizes it and encourages it.
Spotting talent requires talent because it isn't always obvious. The potential of talent is recognized early on by experts, even if it hasn't proven itself yet. Time is the ultimate judge of value, and scholarship compiles references over time. Scholarship determines what has staying power based on statistically-proven experts who can look ahead.
People vary in ability, just as countries vary in success. Innovation isn't a given, which is why when it occurs, we mark it down as history and study it. Civilizations with the winning formula create incredible innovation.
