I noticed there's no word such as smart, bright, clever or wise mentioned in the sentence above.

Just an observation, nothing else.

the word cool is pretty much the opposite of bright so that tracks
What specifically do you mean by this?
I think he's riffing on the essential meaning of the word, e.g. a candle or a bright incandescent bulb cannot be cool- they're literally emitting heat.
That's exactly what I meant to say ;)
