Not sure I agree with the idea there are very few world class hackers there. I've watched a few of the capture the flags and almost immediately they went over my head and I felt inadequate. lol.

I'd argue that the CTF competitors are a minority in attendance (but that doesn't mean they are none at DEFCON).

The people you see on stage and competing in the CTFs are like 0.1% of the attendees.
