but I would take it all with skepticism.
Curiosity is different from smarts. I would be skeptical about any essay trying to say {apples} are better than {oranges}.
If I had to pick one (and maybe you primed my response), I'd say curiosity is motivation sparked by uncertainty. I think curiosity doesn't necessarily have an end goal (gain knowledge, test a hypothesis, etc.) in mind.
