Why putting character flaws into quotes? They are still character flaws, the same way as same behavior is if it is not coming from rich powergul person.

There is no reason to pretend it is something special. If they helped him to get more money and more credit and what not, that does not make them not flaws.

Calling them flaws would seem to me to be a subjective position. Personality traits are perceived differently depending on what the observer is sensitive to. Somebody that is considered rude in a yoga clinic might not be perceived the same way on a construction site.

Is there any culture in which claiming credit for the ideas and innovations of others is considered positive?

And how many would agree it's healthy?

They aren’t “flaws” to everyone. One person’s asshole is another person’s straight shooter.

Which part do you perceive as "straight shooter"?
