7. Intelligence (overall analytic ability, intuitiveness, knowledge, quick thinking, strategy & tactics, foresight & planning, wisdom) - Kakashi (by feats he's the best in this category, idk why people keep ignoring it), Itachi, Shikaku/Shikamaru, Minato, Black Zetsu(He planned the whole shinobi history after all)
No, he just has the most feats, due to having the most screen time. Doesn't mean he's the best in that category.
Best comparison is putting him next to someone with similar intelligence and seeing how he does.
Example being when he was with Minato:

He had no plan against madara. Both he and gaara were just staring as Gai fought madara. Minato was the one who had to take charge, as he was the only one smart enough to instigate ideas in that situation. And minato had to devise a plan using 2 people he barely knows. Meanwhile kakashi knows everyone well in that group, better than minato. Yet minato still took the little knowledge he knew to devise a plan.
Minato was the only one who analysed and identified the weakness of the truth seeking balls, meanwhile kakashi didn't notice. Even kakashi was worried about the truth seeking balls, but minato had to explain to him how they worked. Then even after explaining, kakashi was still worried about his eye sight. Again minato took advantage of gaara being there to help kakashi, something kakashi should have been able to figure out himself. Kakashi's good, but there are others more intelligent than he is. Kakashi is a main character, so he will have more feats, but its quality over quantity here.
