In my opinion, same goes for the specific ability you listed as examples. Sure anyone can improve a lot with practice, but they're gonna progress slower, and probably hit a limit that's lower than someone else with "innate abilites" in that domain.

Intelligence as a whole may be innate (a la, humans are innately more intelligent than snails), but as far as individual variations of intelligence throughout the human species, well, I'm not sure it's that innate.
