Shouldn't it be the opposite? High WIS but low INT?

Intelligence represents how clever you are and what you know, basically how quick your mind is at improvising solutions.

Wisdom is your awareness of your surroundings as well as how much of that you retain and can access on demand without further stimulation.

Int 18 Wis 8 would be like a professor of advances sciences or engineering (doesn't matter what field) who can give indepth breakdowns of things in their field work and expected outcomes of things related to that field. But that same professor can never remember where they put their glasses, lab notes, the homework or remember anyone's name without serious attempts to grill it into their long term memory.

I can't believe nobody's said this yet:

Intelligence is knowing that tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

salsa is my favorite fruit salad though
