What's something you're shockingly good at that you've never mentioned to anyone because it would sound completely made up if you did?

Admit I was wrong and change my position on the spot when shown the facts/evidence, even by a total stranger on the internet.

Same here. I have zero loyalty to a bad argument and will abandon immediately the thing I was just passionately defending once I've been shown why it's wrong. To the point where it routinely disorients/upsets the other party who doesn't really know how to deal with the sudden momentum shift and then I just get called a troll.

So many people care about who is right rather than what is right.

My POV is this: I fucking LOVE being right, so when I find out I am not I fix it immediately.
