Because if they're smart enough they will lie, subvert, and parasitize the society. When you have many strong individuals they will underestimate the power of working together and undermining powerful institutions. Some key areas are banking, news, and education.

They will act as gatekeepers and prevent those strong individuals from rising to the top, because they do not have a support structure of other people looking out for them. This is how a meritocratic society no longer becomes meritocratic.
