I suppose they would have to be considered case by case.

Some claim that highly evolved souls have the ability to overcome or mitigate
their childhood and ancestral baggage.

Certainly I have seen different outcomes between nearly identical cases of
childhood traumas. In one case a person is able to cope with their trauma,
in another the person is a basket case. I attribute the difference to
different past-life strengths.

Also, not all works of genius are spiritual creation. I have known many
intellectually brilliant people whose creation was for egos sake and who
were a**holes.
