Itachi wasnt considered a genius but a prodigy and the databook said so. Minato, Tobirama and Orochi were the genius in the series as they invented things and jutsu. Itachi didnt do anything to earn the title of genius coz he was merely good at learning things thus prodigy, and he was good at using the sharingan but awakening it doesnt require a prodigy but just chakra stimulation in the eyes which Itachi for all his intellect couldnt figure out despite owning the eyes and he told sasuke to up and kill his best friend not considering who it might be. What makes people glorify Itachi that much? He actually Tsukuyomied his 7 yr old little brother( trauma and unstable mind were things he ignored)
