Was hilarious that some deluded people were saying this about Sidney Powell vis-a-vis the Trump bid to overturn the 2020 US Presidential election result.

love this usage. It might be more than being very smart. I picture the patient orchestration of a multiplex, intricate plan, with pawns and schemes maneuvered according to plans either unfathomable or counterintuitive to us rubes, but seen at last to be borne of flabbergasting shrewdness and foresight.
It's also become (through its use WRT Sidney Powell and similar) self-parodic, and is now often facetious, giving implication that simple idiocy gave rise to anything counterintuitive or unfathomable
