Calling that a trope makes the question appear to be bad faith. It's a clinical fact. This is important because if we are to create a high likelihood of solving a problem we would do best to soberly and accurately assess said problem. Do we endeavor to eliminate sociopathy as a psychological possibility?. If the focus is billionaires as opposed to sociopathy, then we should direct our focus to the economic systems which allow the existence of billionaires.

I don't have the data on billionaire's diagnosis haha.

Yes we endeavor to eliminate the mental illness. No, we don't focus on eliminating it from billionaires, we focus on eliminating it in general and billionaires would likely be the first to receive new/expensive treatments.
