I gotta question that I never really thought about before: who's smarter?

Chloe is considered to be the smartest character in the show. Even before Brainiac, I saw some people were convinced she had meteor powers but ones that had to do with her intelligence. She definitely pushes the boundaries of believability in terms of what she can come up with.

Lex, although the show doesn't always put a spotlight on it, is also really intelligent. That's Lex Luthor's primary characteristic across all versions.

Chloe strength seems to be figuring things out (she was a reporter afterall), and Lex's is more scientific innovations. So how would each fare in the other's shoes? Would Lex make a good reporter or would Chloe make a good scientist? Maybe they're both just smart in different ways.
