No, judging others and insisting they should learn what/how you did is the elitist bull crap. I guarantee there are plenty of musicians who are better than you by a mile and plenty who know more music theory than you. I'd bet you are mainly trained in western music so does that mean you should get back to school to study all forms of music you do not know? Of course not.

It is a continuum. People who know a lot of theory. People who know no theory and all kinds in between. And that is just fine.
