"One day, they'll figure out a way to build machines which will implement what you're thinking. Even then they will near clear thinkers to run them."
Almost everything listed there on this list is a skill. They are not qualities and perhaps aren't even fundamental.
Curiousity, tenacity, perseverance, patience, imagination. Add in some courage to show others unfinished work and the humility to take help/criticism.
Those are qualities I have seen in good programmers.
These are not innate qualities really. But they are qualities which escape quantification.
But reading a lot of code and debugging ... those are skills & need to be built. And then built upon.
