See, I think dominance is not the goal of all energies, and that there are multiple ways that someone or an archetypal energies can assert dominance.
Observe an established dominance with overpowering or calm grounded energies vs dominance through Intelligence and Desirability
Or Raven bones that would achieve this through eliciting mystery and wonder in the eyes of beholders
Or rather, a dominance that is not really sought after but a skillful presence that sits on a different throne other than one of dominance
If anything, an ‘off’ feeling might be because of this heightened intelligence,
Like… 'wow my codes are cracked and I would be better changing the usual way I behave in your presence"
That, too, is another type of intelligent dominance.
