Some people say, "Innovation is a genius, following is a mediocrity, and repetition is a fool." Why?

Innovation is unknown and can bring economic or social benefits. Innovative people can think of things that others can't think of, so they are called geniuses. Follow is a vassal, follow, they have no subjective opinions and ideas, no new ideas or content with the status quo, so they are called mediocrity. Repetition is used by others, which is blind and ineffective, unremarkable, and even makes people laugh. For example, he uses it to say what others repeat. On some occasions, no one denies it to his face, but he must laugh at him behind his back.
