Right, his mind was first rate but in a dog-eat-dog life, so much more goes into it. I find them all very interesting characters and I'd like other people's thoughts on the narrative I've crafted of their lives and interactions.
That's just relativity, but he also did groundbreaking work on atoms and light, and he even designed an interesting new refrigeration cycle.
It's not really possible to say how much raw intellectual power goes into solving a problem (yet), so it's hard to compare giants like Poincare, von Neumann, and Einstein.
Still, Einstein's mind was clearly first-rate.
