I want to quickly ask you a few more questions.

I know that Psychological Intuition is listed as a separate ability to Intuitive Aptitude, but since it's a variation of Intuitive aptitude, is it basically Intuitive Aptitude?

I don't think Tactical Analysis would be totally ineffective in a user with low intelligence.

It says the user can apply the skill to either battle (real life) or to strategic games.

A user with high intelligence may be given the advantage of 'conceiving more connections' or 'having a wider information base', but a user of this kind will still be at the disadvantage in real life because there are too many variables in real life anyway, whereas in a strategic game there are a limited number of positions or tactics, or moves that can be carried out at one time, or in one turn (according to the game's rules ect.).

There's structure and objective in a strategic game, but no aim in real life.

To me it seems that Tactical Analysis will be ineffective in any user regardless of their level of intelligence if they don't have knowledge of, experiance with, or memory of complex strategies to begin with. It's not a psychic ability.

In chess for example...

A user with an IQ of 80 might be able to see 4-5 moves ahead, a user with an IQ of 100 might be able to see 7-8 moves ahead, and a user with an IQ of 120 might be able to see 10-11 moves ahead, each user has had a month of training, but if the user with an IQ of 80 had a years worth of training, he might be able to see 15-20 steps ahead and surpass the person with an IQ of 120.

Therefore a user of low intelligence can use his/her long-term memory and logic as a substitute.

The user doesn't really need high intelligence, just focus, a lot of experiance and a good memory.

So for a user with low intelligence, it isn't a completely useless ability.

Also, you said there was a scene in Death Note where L Lawliet said he learned how to fly a helicopter without taking classes, if he just figured out how to use the vehicle on his own without going through training wouldn't he have intuitive aptitude?
