You were fine, up to the note: "Non-analytical is a euphemism for stupid."

There are a LOT of people who are both predominantly non-technical, and non-analytical, who are still profoundly adept and effective at whatever they do.

"Analytical" means that you consciously break down a problem or task into its constituent parts. Some folks just divine the appropriate solution from a very fuzzy experiential decision-making method. They can't explain it, they just KNOW how to accomplish things. There's no analysis, just instinct and hunch.

Everyone is some mix of analytical and experiential. Do you analyze your trip to the kitchen during a commercial break? Do you analyze your software project estimates down to line count and hour-tenths of effort?
