"manifestations of intellectual curiosity"

Exactly. A person who is constantly reverse engineering business, peoples behavior and life in general.

Curiosity is a big thing. Before I wrote this reply I clicked your handle to see what you did and who you are. I guess that's fairly common on HN but there are people that I know in the local area who still haven't visited my website and have no idea what I do. They just aren't curious in the least.
