To me the important issue in the 'mimic' thing is that the kid is not a one-in-a-million special kind of genius. (At least you can't tell that from the video.) Instead, he's just a smart sixth grader. I think this is important because we should realize that what this kid did is something most smart sixth graders can do, if they have the interest and devote themselves to it. So we can hold him up as a model to other sixth-graders and say, "Hey, you can do this too."

We're talking about both (1) his presentation and (2) his programming skills. Other kids should be encouraged by his presentation, instead of thinking, "Cool, but unfortunately he's a genius (or super-special, or etc.); I could never do that myself."
