And then there’s the Omega who does it because he autistically wants all the information to be exactly correct rather than “good enough”. A useful trait for computer programmers maybe, but not for making friends.
But I could never quite grok the reasons Gammas argue just to argue. Do they expect the crowd to anoint them as a sage or something? It just looks like asking to be shoved into a locker.
Phew. I always find highly intelligent, competent people inspiring, and want to emulate them. Nothing is more annoying that constant criticism without actual action and competence.
One of my former colleagues managed to get himself kicked out of his sister's house recently because (he said) Sis's granddaughter’s boyfriend threatened him. I have my doubts about that. The reason I have doubts is that he was a gamma in the workplace and managed ran his mouth at the worst possible times, about things that were not his business. That got him fired a couple of times. He didn't learn the basics of when to keep his mouth shut and how to get along with people. He did the same thing in the army. It is a compulsion that requires self reflection to cure. The secret king does not self reflect.

Your read accords with my own. They operate under a compulsion.
