No.

Being able to reason from different perspectives, to change their worldview due to new experiences or arguments, the ability to adapt to different circumstances.

Or if you are HR would you see it as a negative if you received an application with no existent LinkedIn account?

Not HR but hiring manager, one of the best guys I hired has no LinkedIn account and I didn’t mind. I go purely by resume and interview.

Weightlifting, genealogy, soccer, reading, travel, chess, cycling

Sounds a bit old-timey. I refuse to believe that there are people younger than 60 years old with that name.

Interstellar, The Day after Tomorrow, Deep Impact.
